Folks,

on the gborg front page is a link to the "pgreplication" project as one 
of five "top" projects. This thing has had zero updates since its last 
attempts agains PostgreSQL 7.2 and appears literally dead.

Can someone please remove that?

The pgreplication project
I guess I have to address a slightly broader audience, or do I conclude 
from the total lack of interest in this matter that nobody cares if we 
promote something here as one of our "top five" flagship projects, that 
is inactive for years and still a prototype implementation against 
PostgreSQL 6.4 with no ideas how to incorporate the semantic changes of 
MVCC into the concept.

We might be leaning towards migrating things to pgfoundry, but that does 
not mean that we can leave gborg behind as a half plundered wreck where 
one by accident might still find something useful.

Re: [GENERAL] The pgreplication project
Well I am working to address the problem, sorry if I am not doing it
fast enough. I spoke with the gborg maintainer and found out that the
top 5 is based on page views for a project rather than cvs activity. 
While I've no doubt you've been more active on slony development, I am
not so sure that pgreplication doesn't get more page views. So, I have
(just) sent Chris an email asking to reset the stats so we will see
which project floats to the top, but I think longer term we need a
"replication guide" listing the different solutions available like we do
with windows and gui tools up on techdocs. I plan to do that as well,
just need to find time to work it into the schedule.

Aha ... and let me guess, the algorithm does NOT look at the 
Http-Referrer to ignore the hits caused by listing it at the top, right?
