- "Add ON COMMIT capability to CREATE TABLE AS ... SELECT" is done

- "Allow PREPARE to automatically determine parameter types" is done

- "Clean up compiler warnings (especially with gcc version 4)" is done:
  AFAIK there are no remaining gcc4 compiler warnings to be fixed.

- Creating rules to do view updates is *not* an easy TODO item
