Ok, that will go out in this weekend's snapshot. It will also be in
2.6.5 - which is probably
a few weeks away. There is essentially no difference between 2.6.5
and the snapshot
with regard to copying tables, since that hasn't really been the focus
of 2.7 development so far.
The snapshot will have experimental support for new refactorings which
are supported
in SQLServer, but not Ingres as of yet.(It will eventually when it is released).
