Yesterday, Hubert ‘depesz’ Lubaczewski wrote a post about new functionality in PostgreSQL 9.1.
In a few words we will have the ability to add new values to the existing ENUM type defined earlier. Thanks God!
However, Andrew Dunstan proposed to use another syntax for it:
ALTER TYPE enumtype ADD LABEL ‘newlabel’
The discussion was hot. Brendan Jurd wanted previous syntax, Tom Lane proposed substitution VALUE for LABEL, Pavel Stehule made a suggestion for ELEMENT etc.
What term sounds good for you, friend?
