Forgive me if this is clear to everyone else, but regarding the new replication options in 8.4: Will existing PITR backup techniques work without modification? Will existing techniques for warm standby with a custom script (not using pg_standby) work without modification? We will want to continue with an asynchronous approach involving WAL file shipping; however it might be a usable enhancement for us if there was a way to append to a WAL file copy as the production WAL file filled, especially if there's a way to fire a script when it is complete. Will that be possible? In particular, we need to copy WAL files from the database server to two different locations, at least one of which can't be running PostgreSQL software. -Kevin
