Subject: [GENERAL] Slony-I 2.0.5 Released

The Slony team is pleased to announce the release of version 2.0.5 of
the Slony-1 replication system.

The release is available at

http://www.slony.info/downloads/2.0/source/slony1-2.0.5.tar.bz2
http://www.slony.info/downloads/2.0/source/slony1-2.0.5.docs.tar.bz2

2.0.5 fixes more than 24 issues found from 2.0.4 and earlier versions,
remedying many issues found during an extensive testing period.

The following issues visibly change Slony-I behaviour, and thus warrant
extra attention from existing users:

-Bug #121 SUBSCRIBE SET is now submitted against the set origin not the
provider.
-Bug #40 Slony now requires a thread-safe libpq on all platforms.

See the release notes (RELEASE file) for more details and a complete
list of changes.
