8.4 Features Page Typos

Hello,

There are some grammar and spelling mistakes at http://www.postgresql.org/about/press/features84.html

"requirement to concatinate" (concatenate)
"suppress_redundent_updates()" (redundant)
This allow your (allows)
the reverse, that is seeing (that is, seeing) very awkward wording-
perhaps better as

"The reverse of the array_agg() function, unnest() takes an array and
creates a record set with one row for each array element."

Also, the "Feature Matrix" page is fantastic! Thanks!

Cheers,
M

Applied, thanks; they should show up in some time.  I hope I'm not
upsetting anyone.

On that page I see now
  "suppress_redundant_updates() Trigger"

which is still not right, I think? The function is called
  "suppress_redundant_updates_trigger()"

unless this page is wrong: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/functions-trigger.html


( a second small typo is:  "functioname" should be "functionname" )


hth,

Erik Rijkers

Not at all - thanks for the fix.

Nope.  This "are" a community doc.  And pgweb is now the canonical version.
