Re: [GeoNetwork-devel] Motion to make release 2.2.0

[Jeroen T. <Jer...@fa...>]

Thanks Emanuele,
Yes, it is an issue we have to watch closely. At the same time it  
seems to be working with an older postgres driver v7.4 according to  
Simon so it's not a full block. I'll include a description of the  
problem under Known issues in the release notes.
I'll go ahead with the release and we can resolve the issue completely  
in a next minor release if needed.
Ciao,
Jeroen
