Since you may not want to have real time replication going (don't push up new
test cases until they make it out of test), I wonder if something like Robert
Kaye's lazy replication system he uses for music brainz might be more
applicable.  I can't recall if his OSCon talk is linked from techdocs, but it
should be available on the OSCon 2004 site.  Google on some of the above
words to find out more info.
