Evergreen

New Business
- PostgreSQL 9.3 support
- There are several aspects of PostgreSQL 9.3 that break Evergreen:
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1253163 (authority indexes can fail on Postgres 9.3.0)
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1277731 (Stricter column/table alias handling breaks hold test functions)
- Stricter type handling in function arguments (INTs no longer automatically coerced to TEXTs) breaks STRING_AGG() in a few places, possibly other functions - not sure this is bugged yet
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1243023 (XPATH() changed behaviour between 9.1 and 9.2) - this breaks 9.2 as well, for what it's worth
- Should we make PostgreSQL 9.3 support a release blocker for Evergreen 2.6 to avoid accumulating too much technical deficit / causing too much pain for those who aren't aware of the 9.3 problems?
- And obviously we need pgTAP tests to ensure that we get the expected behaviour from 9.1 through 9.3 (and beyond)
- Evergreen Hackfest Plans
- Time to start a wiki page like previous years to start getting ideas together?
- Example wiki page from 2013 Hackfest - http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=dev:hackfest:eg2013
