The next major version of pg_partman has been released. The biggest new feature is there is now a background worker process (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/bgworker.html) for partition maintenance. This means, for most cases, a separate scheduler is no longer required. This also means that PostgreSQL 9.4 at a minimum is required for 2.0.0. See the README and doc file for more info on setting this up.
There are also now no longer distinct partition trigger types (static & dynamic). These have been combined into a single trigger format that better handles a wider range of incoming data to partition sets. Instructions for migrating existing partition sets can be found in the extension update file (pg_partman--1.8.7--2.0.0.sql). The primary download location is github - https://github.com/keithf4/pg_partman It can also be found on pgxn - http://pgxn.org/dist/pg_partman/2.0.0 -- Keith Fiske Database Administrator OmniTI Computer Consulting, Inc. http://www.keithf4.com
