To explain the situation, the public discussion about the current submission happened here: http://lists.pgfoundry.org/pipermail/skytools-users/2007-September/000245.html and here: http://lists.slony.info/pipermail/slony1-hackers/2007-September/000057.html And ofcourse, the original submission was at 2006-07 to _8.2_: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2006-07/msg00157.php It was rejected then mostly on 3 reasons (from my POV): - it was messy and contained unnecesary cruft. - it was submitted to core not /contrib - slony was not interested in it at that moment Now as you can read from recent disussion we had, we found out that it would be *really* *really* cool if it would appear in 8.3... Talk about last moment... Because of the bad timing it would have been -core call anyway whether it gets in or not so Jan asked -core directly. That's my explanation about what happened, obviously Jan and Tom have their own opinion. -- marko ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
