Wow, yea, the performance gains and new UX features (JSON_TABLE, MERGE improvements, etc) are huge here, but these really stand out to me:

> PostgreSQL 17 supports using identity columns and exclusion constraints on partitioned tables.

> PostgreSQL 17 also includes a built-in, platform independent, immutable collation provider that's guaranteed to be immutable and provides similar sorting semantics to the C collation except with UTF-8 encoding rather than SQL_ASCII. Using this new collation provider guarantees that your text-based queries will return the same sorted results regardless of where you run PostgreSQL.

huh? It's only been about 9

Thanks!

Haha. Nice!

Absolutely I would! Any contributions would be greatly appreciated!

Ha, that's such a classic HN comment.

I appreciate you taking the time to look at the source. I used this, like I do most of my side projects, as an opportunity to learn a few things.

I wanted a generic abstraction so that multiple sources could be used. Originally I didn't want or think of the need to support multiple sources, but it quickly became apparent how necessary that was when looking at the quality of free vs paid vs personal-key-required sources.

In any case, thanks for checking it out!
