Hi,

I'd like to submit the replication solution which is based on the
pglogical_output [1] module (which is obviously needed for this to
compile).

This is fantastic! However, history presents itself here and PostgreSQL in the past has not "blessed" a single solution for Replication. Obviously that changed a bit with streaming replication but this is a bit different than that. As I understand it, PgLogical is Logical Replication (similar to Slony and Londiste). I wouldn't be surprised (although I don't know) if Slony were to start using some of the pglogical_output module features in the future.

If we were to accept PgLogical into core, it will become the default blessed solution for PostgreSQL. While that is great in some ways it is a different direction than the project has taken in the past. Is this what we want to do?

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
