Does Postgres have a viable replicate "agent" that is ready for the
enterprise, just like to MSQLServer, Oracle, Sybase, etc., have?

What's the status of this project effort below?

If by "just like" you mean something that you have to pay money for then
yes, it does have this. Check out some of the postgresql support
companies (pgsql inc. in particular).

Well, I'm not a member of the project, but I know it is being talked
about by folks who are involved in that project. IIRC Bruce is doing a
talk/presentation at OSCON this year on replication.

If you do some digging through techdocs.postgresql.org and the mail
archives, you'll find a few other solutions are floating around out
there, some of them are even being used by people. :-)
