   3.6) What is the upgrade process for PostgreSQL?
   
-   The PostgreSQL team only adds bug fixes to minor releases. All users
-   should upgrade to the most recent minor release as soon as possible.

-   only frequently-encountered, security, and data corruption bugs, to
-   reduce the risk of upgrading. The community considers not upgrading

-   Major releases (e.g. from 7.3 to 7.4) often change the internal format
-   of system tables and data files. These changes are often complex, so
