Thread: physical should be logical
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/logical-replication-publication.html Description: Hi, On this page, https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/logical-replication-publication.html The first line states: A publication can be defined on any physical replication master. I have the impression that this should be "logical", not "physical". Cheers, Willy-Bas Loos

Although the statement contains terminology that confuses who is reading, it is
correct. "physical replication master" means a read-write server. Maybe we
should change this sentence to: "A publication can be defined on any primary
server.". Hence, it avoids the term "physical" that should confuse readers.
