Beta #3 is now available at
http://developer.postgresql.org/~wieck/slony1/download/slony1-1.1.0.beta3.tar.gz

Three changes this week:

1.  Fixed SGML documentation so it builds on RHAT/OpenJade.  (Evidently
there was a lack of closing tags causing grief there.)

2.  Makers of .deb and .rpm packages have submitted spec/control files
that generate packages, which led to clearing up a lot of small details
surrounding the installation of components.

3.  One performance improvement (we're trying to avoid other than fixes
of problems, bu this was too tempting to pass up):  The COPY_SET event
now drops indices on tables before performing the COPY to copy data to a
new subscriber, and then recreates the indices afresh.  This new option,
controlled by the "drop_indices" slon parameter, should lead to
noticeably better performance when subscribing large sets.
