I'm not sure that Jan can do a tutorial on the actual replication
system -- he's never had to administer it (fortunately for him), just
fix some bugs in it (unfortunately for him). I think if he does a
talk on this, it'll have to be on his currently-in-progress system
instead. (I do think, however, that people at OSCON are way more
likely to want to talk to Jan than to talk to me. I'm a miserably
bad programmer, so I'm not really in a position to talk about what
we're doing next except in the broadest terms.)

Yes; I was actually wondering what to talk about for 45 minutes. The
wonder about Postgres is that it mostly runs itself when everything
is going along nicely.

I can propse both of these, then, if you like, assuming someone
better isn't volunteering. (There are many better, I'm sure, and
I'll happily step out of the way for others.)
