In the 1.1 branch, a number of minor bugs have been dealt with; in
both branches, the following more significant changes have been made:

- MERGE SET now refuses to be applied if a subscriber has not
  yet confirmed post-subscription events

- Fixed a concurrency problem where if you had > 2 nodes, the threads
  processing log shipping shared a single file descriptor as well as
  other variables.

- Added a SYNC slonik command to allow requesting a SYNC event.
  This is a more useful thing to wait for than a SUBSCRIBE SET.

- Added a SLEEP slonik command to allow writing code that tells
  the script to pause for some number of seconds

The Slonik additions were pretty trivial, but prove extremely useful
for getting Slonik scripts to "play better" when managing complex
combinations of events such as subscribing a set then merging it into
an existing one.  Race conditions can be a pain...

Given positive reports, we anticipate 1.2.1 and 1.1.6 being released
at the end of this week.
