Good, thanks. I'm happy to collaborate.

What intense work is required? pglogical already works, it just requires
review. If you already have opinions about things that need changing, or
that require additional work, please say what they are on-list in the
normal way.

I'm happy to collaborate, I just don't see why that requires multiple
commit rights to a single repository. It may do, once we know what changes
you're thinking about. If we aren't going to talk about changes in advance,
then multiple commit rights is a recipe for conflict, not a better way at
all.

Petr is more than capable for managing bug fixes and I would like to see
him have his chance to demonstrate his skill and get a shot at being a
committer, just as you did. Having one person manage a feature seems like
the best way.

Logical decoding itself has many additional feature requirements as well,
so there is more than enough work to do for all.
