Hello,
the pgfoundry project seems to be the initial start of cybercluster
offered by CyberTec from Austria (German page:
http://www.postgresql-support.de/pr_cybercluster.html).
As far as I know this is a modified/adapted pgcluster solution.
We're very happy with pgpool-II for load-balancing and multi-master
usage of PostgreSQL (keep in mind to enable HA for pgpool-II itself to
avoid a SPOF, e.g. with heartbeat).
regards...GERD...
