You've done a brilliant job and I have huge respect for that.

MHO: The world changes and new solutions emerge. Assimilation of
technology into lower layers of the stack has been happening for years.
The core parts of Slony should be assimilated, just as TCP/IP now exists
as part of the OS, to the benefit of all. Various parts of Slony have
already moved to core. Slony continues to have huge potential, though as
part of an evolution, not in all cases fulfilling the same role it did
at the beginning. Log shipping cannot easily exist outside of core,
though SQL shipping can: but should it? How much more could we do?
