That's a surprising response. But it makes sense, at least as one perspective. I have written light duty sync systems but figured that there would be some battle tested postgresql solution that was more robust than I could cobble together. As in, if I invest 40 hours learning replication system

Joshua, you're with command prompt...you had/have a product called mammoth replicator which I looked at. It seemed approx what I was after but the project didn't seem very alive. Was my use case not what mammoth was about? Or is it just that mammoth is basically gone? -- View this message in
