I just did a round of integrating some of the big-picture feedback that
has shown up here since the meeting into
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/SEPostgreSQL_Review_at_the_BWPUG ,
mainly supplementing the references in the "Works outside of SELinux"
section with the new suggested reading here suggested by Stephen Smalley
and Joshua Brindle. I'm trying to keep that a fairly readable intro to
the controversial parts rather than going deeply technical.
What I'm not going to try to track is all the low-level implementation
details that are bouncing around right now, my brain is too full this
week to cram more about OID trivia into it right now. That would be a
good idea for someone to summarize eventually and then throw that onto
the wiki somewhere else, so that it's easier to remember the context of
what/why decisions were made. The way Simon has been keeping an ongoing
log at http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Hot_Standby shows a reasonable
way to organize such a thing from a similarly complicated patch.
