I agree that it would be premature to remove pg_standby at this point. But how about changing the default value of standby_mode from "off" to "on" in 9.2? I think most new installations are probably using that, rather than pg_standby, and changing the default would give people a gentle push in what now seems to be the preferred direction. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
