And you don't. Very very simple plsql code to do it has been posted dozens of times. You don't have to be a genius to cut and paste it. > > BTW thanks for the polite e-mail. :-/ > > Given that it's been four years and countless requests for this, a > wakeup call style email is justified. Way to go! You tell those guys who you don't pay how to do things! Those uncaring bastards! Now they'll listen right up and do what you tell them! Why, if you shout a little louder, we might have multi-master synchronous replication this time next week! Wait, I've got a better idea. Get out your checkbook and write them a check to do it. Honestly, it's a feature I'd love to have too. But seeing as how I can't implement it, and don't have a fat enough wallet to pay them to do it, I'll just put in my vote for it like everyone else. Minus the F bomb.

A "wakeup call" might be justified if:
(1) it's on -advocacy (after all, the primary threat in his email is
that we would lose users...)
(2) it's good advocacy, i.e. not rude, insulting, demanding, or vulgar

And that's the only thing I apologize for. It's good advocacy.
