phpPgAdmin 5.1 Released!

The phpPgAdmin Team is proud to announce the new major release of phpPgAdmin. Version 5.1 add many new features, bug fixes and updated translations over the previous version. The version has been long overdue, and brings with it stable support for all current versions of PostgreSQL, including 9.1 and 9.2. In addition, there are also a fair number of bugs that have been fixed, including a bug that could lead to corrupted bytea data, so all users are strongly encouraged to upgrade. We appreciate the large number of people that use phpPgAdmin on a regular basis, and hope this new version will help make things even better!
