9.5 is a in-development version, 9.6 doesn't even exist, why would you
want to use anything OTHER than the stable and reliable 9.4 unless
you're explicitly testing for bugs in 9.5 ?

BDR is currently an addon for 9.4, I don't believe its available for 9.5
yet.

playing with new features. (9.6 exists as devel, with great features
like parallel seq. scan)

Correct, there's no BDR for 9.5.

There's a pretty good chance we'll skip 9.5 entirely and deliver an improved BDR on top of 9.6 down the track, but that's not something that'll be happening until 9.6 is much closer to ready.

Ok, nice to know that. Exists a mailinglist about BDR?
