Well, at the moment not making it public is obviously blocking other
people, and not doing open design discussions publically seems to make
it rather unlikely that it'll get accepted close to as-is anyway. It's
constantly referred to in discussions, and it guided the design of the
submitted output plugin.

Uh, I am? Stuff like working on upsert, grouping sets et al, was all on
Citus' time. I've been busy with something else for the last 2-3 months.

I don't see how that belongs to this thread, it's unrelated to
replication.
Either way, the license is yet to be determined, and it'll be Q1
2016. Yes, I've worked on open sourcing it.
