Fair enough ;) So what would it cost to have this feature implemented?
Specifically adding the application level redundancy patch that was submitted. I think it is certainly worth discussion if nothing else to see if it is something we, people interested, might collectively be able to pay for. Actually a pretty interesting topic... maybe more suited for a general Slashdot thread. Paying for open source dev.. I think there was something on that recently.
