Yeah. Even if we'd had completed support for decoding on standby, there's no way we could've implemented the required gymnastics for getting logical replication to actually use it to support physical failover for pg10, so it was always going to land in pg11. This is very much a "how do we do it right when we do do it" topic, not a pg10 issue. -- Craig Ringer http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
