..as does every other patch for Postgres before possibly it lands on mainline.

I lost that sale :P Well, yeah, maybe Postgres-R is going to loose that sale as well. But hey, it's not long ago since you've open sourced it. What makes you think that you've already "lost that sale"? I for example didn't find time to look at the Replicator sources up until now. However, IMO there's more to a fork than just having different source trees. When I hear of a fork, I think of something more like SQL-Ledger vs. LedgerSMB, where major disagreements play a role. Everything else is just ordinary evolution of software ;-) Regards Markus Wanner -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
