I can take care of #4 on monday if someone has done 1-3. Not around this weekend t help with those. Oh, and while I have no idea why we changed the time for deploying updates, I'll just add that this time suits me a lot better than the usual one :-) -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

Selena,
These look mostly good to me. I say mostly because apparently etherpad
crashes my browser, so I can't read the whole thing.
Is there a link to the alphabeta testing info page on the wiki?
If so, I think we're good to go. Devrim, can you take Selena's text and
queue it up to be home page/beta page updates? Can Stefan do final
deployment, or does Devrim need to do it if he queued it?

I've been using the phrase "binary replication" which is what's really new.

Let's keep things consistent then :) Devrim - can you switch the 'read-only' replication to say 'binary' replication? thanks, -selena -- http://chesnok.com/daily - me http://endpoint.com - work

It's not the replication that's read-only, it's the queries executed on
the slaves. I haven't read the proposed docs but it sounds like this
is confusing two features that would be better explained separately,
viz
* built-in simple replication
* ability to execute read-only queries on a replication slave server
(in this context, "simple" really means "all or nothing", as compared
to stuff like Slony that can replicate subsets of a database)

Even though it means a bit more explanation, I think it is very clear.

> As opposed to what? ASCII replication?
As opposed to logical, row-based replication (which is what Slony,
Londiste and Bucardo do) or statement-based replication (which is what
pgPool and Continuent do).
The existing solutions we have are all "logical" replication solutions,
which means that they function at the level of query logic. WAL-based
replication is "binary", which means that it operates at the file level
and doesn't care about query logic.
Anyway, what we have on Devrim's draft now seems fine, we should run
with it.

So who is actually doing what? I said I could do the on-release stuff before I left for the weekend, but it seems that someone else is now doing that? But which parts? Web/docs/news? Am I supposed to do any of it still? FYI, Devrim, what was said back then was that I was supposed to do it at 12:00 UTC. I assume that applies to you as well. -- Magnus HaganderMe: http://www.hagander.net/Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/
