To be fair, none of these has had much attention. Wide deployment is
still the best evidence of full testing, and I don't know that _any_
of the replication systems for PostgreSQL have been installed and
used under a wide variety of circumstances. The lack of a real,
built-in replication system in Postgres is a fundamental problem, and
therefore the sort of thing that people justifiably point to as a
missing feature.
