FYI, here is a test script that is using the current patch (v6) to demonstrate a way to share table data between different numbers of nodes (up to 5 of them here).
The script starts off with just 2-way sharing (nodes N1, N2), then expands to 3-way sharing (nodes N1, N2, N3), then 4-way sharing (nodes N1, N2, N3, N4), then 5-way sharing (nodes N1, N2, N3, N4, N5). As an extra complication, for this test, all 5 nodes have different initial table data, which gets replicated to the others whenever each new node joins the existing share group.
