Well. I don't think (hope) anybody proposed making something release worthy for 
slony but rather a POC patch that proofs the API is generic enough to be used 
by them. If I (or somebody else familiar with this) work together with somebody 
familiar with with slony internals I think such a POC shouldn't be too hard to 
do.
I think some more input from that side is a good idea. I plan to send out an 
email to possibly interested parties in about two weeks...

Regards,

Andres
