Finally, I know that the replication works. Is there a "standard"

What do you mean? CouchDB is the only program (sadly) that supports
CouchDB replication.
Err to steer the conversation back to the original subject, I meant,
are there scripts that do the replication for you in common scenarios?
Or is everything still roll-your-own?
I can see these problems in replication:
- Keeping track of replicas
- Handling replica-down and replica-up events
- Keeping track of which subset of data to replicate
I suppose a blind "try until it succeeds" approach might work, so a
"while sleep 3; do curl URL_TO_DO_REPLICATION; done" might be the end
of it.
I'm just wondering.
Wout.
