Thanks Jun. On a related note, is it possible to specify wildcards for whitelist/blacklist in the mirroring setup? The mirroring wiki [1] says that it is not supported, but I thought I'll double check just in case.
Are there any technical reasons why this cannot be supported? It'll go a long way in helping with two-way mirroring setups. Otherwise, one will be able to work only with a fixed set of topics.
