Interesting stuff!  I'm not enough of a guru on Postgresql to
understand half of these improvements, but he starts off by saying
"You're not still using Windows 3.1.  So why are you still using
Postgresql92?"  Them be fightin' words!

SQL has gone out of fashion lately—partly due to the NoSQL movement,
but mostly because SQL is often still used like 20 years ago. As a
matter of fact, the SQL standard continued to evolve during the past
decades resulting in the current release of 2011. In this session, we
will go through the most important additions since the widely known
SQL-92, explain how they work and how PostgreSQL supports and extends
them. We will cover common table expressions and window functions in
detail and have a very short look at the temporal features of SQL:2011
and the related features of PostgreSQL.
