I gather > that (mumble pgadmin?) has done some work in that direction. btw, don't get me wrong, I think I slony is excellent - it belongs in the same elite category of open source systems (think apache, mysql, pg, php, perl, linux, etc) which, despite their horrendous complexity, work well. I gave pgadmin a try (thinking it would ease the learning curve a bit and just get me going) a few weeks ago when I first decided to give slony a try. For slony support, it's not quite there yet (only for creating an initial set and adding another node, I think - but even with this it seems a bit beta). ...but to further your mumble, after slogging through the slony init stuff (and ending up with nice parameterized scripts to automate slony setup for existing DBs [the next time I need it]), I suppose this is what open source depends on: folks having a FAT irritable groan about some rough edges/whatever and deciding to give that itch an almighty scratch. Just wish there were more hours in the day, dammit.
