I’ve tagged a 1.1.0rc2 release because I didn’t get much feedback until now.
‘RC’ means it is a Release Candidate, I feel confident about it being stable enough for production use, but it still needs testing.
Please note : error logging is active [...]

PG4WP 1.1.0 will be out in a few weeks
Wow ! Time is going so fast …
WordPress 2.9 seems to break compatibility with PG4WP 1.0.0, which is unsurprising.
Whereas I’m watching new releases of WordPress, I’ll wait some days after the bugfix release (version 2.9.1) before I start to work on updating PG4WP to make it work with WordPress 2.9.
While I’m working on this new [...]
PG4WP in the plugins directory
PG4WP is now present in the plugins directory at WordPress.Org, allowing for a direct access to the latest versions and the changelog.
PG4WP 1.0.0
Yes ! PostgreSQL for WordPress 1.0.0 is out
This means I think the code is stable enough to be used in the real world
I optimized a bit the code, mainly to have often used code reached faster.
Another big change is in the size of ‘db.php’ that cuts down from about 32kB to [...]

Time for a new release, with the following improvements :
Ignore errors about non existing table “wp_options” while installing WordPress when debugging is on
SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS emulation, to have correct posts paging

I’ll soon rework my blog’s translation, using this great plugin.
SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS emulation gives correct paging, so PG4WP can be used on post-intensive [...]
