is this even possible?
(no, don't answer that, it's a rhetorical question.)
i can make a case that there are at least 3 distinctly different types
of replication needed depending on the application.
1) synchronous
2) single master, multiple slave asynchronous
(aka slony)
3) multi-master async w/conflict resolution
(like the now woefully out of date pg-replicator)
the work on slony is appreciated, but i need 3), and it
looks like i'm going to have to do it myself. sigh.
