I missed the meeting at #replicator, but still have some questions

What's new ?

I have some doubts about the current architecture based on my reading of
replicator wiki, but would like to learn about the "new" architecture
before spending too much time in studying the "old" one.

Is it there alread, or is it just a planned feature ?

> * Release timeline

* How hard would it be to extract DDL replication part and use it as
basis for DDL after trigger support for use in trigger based
replication/auditing like Slony ann pgQ/Londiste ?

* special DDL triggers capturing DDL statement source could also
be an alternative to full DDL triggers.
