Restore-point?

Hello,

Sorry if this post was sent twice.

Is it possible to restore a database previously backed-up with "dump", and then recover some of the changes made after the backup, until a specific timestamp, by using some sort of "journal"? Is there such a feature in Postgresql?

Thanks

You are asking for point-in-time recovery. We are working on adding
that, maybe for 7.5.
