adam 74230fd435 Version 9.1 delivers several features which users have been requesting for
years, removing roadblocks to deploying new or ported applications on
PostgreSQL. These include:
* Synchronous Replication: enable high-availability with consistency across
  multiple servers
* Per-Column Collations: support linguistically-correct sorting per database,
  table or column.
* Unlogged Tables: greatly improves performance for ephemeral data

Our community of contributors innovates with cutting-edge features. Version 9.1
includes several which are new to the database industry, such as:
* K-Nearest-Neighbor Indexing: index on "distance" for faster location and text
  search queries
* Serializable Snapshot Isolation: keeps concurrent transactions consistent
  without blocking, using "true serializability"
* Writeable Common Table Expressions: execute complex multi-stage data updates
  in a single query
* Security-Enhanced Postgres: deploy military-grade security and Mandatory

Please see the PL/Python section of the PostgreSQL Programmer's Guide
(databases/postgresql-docs) for information on programming with
${PKGNAME}.
Note that PL/Python is unrestricted language, meaning it does not
offer any way of restricting what users can do in it. Any DB user with
access to PL/Python can run arbitrary Python code under privileges
of the PostgreSQL server process.
To enable PL/Python for database <dbname>, run following:
createlang plpythonu <dbname>
