I would like to request that contrib/dbmirror be removed from the
repository because it is GPL-licensed and was added after 7.2, so it does
not qualify for the "it has always been there" exception.
In my mind, this package it much better kept at gborg.

I am not sure we should be removing /contrib stuff during beta, though I
understand the idea that gborg would be a better place for it. How do
others feel? Should we move rserv too? I don't think the license alone
makes the move warranted, but if we moved both replication solutions,
parhaps for 7.4, that might make sense.

We had agreed to try to relicense or remove all GPL-licensed contrib
items, so that the distribution would have one uniform BSD license.
I take the blame for not doing anything about that in the past cycle,
but AFAIK that is still the agreed-to plan.
In view of that, Peter is quite right to object to adding a new
GPL-licensed contrib item in 7.3; it's going in the wrong direction.
I think the ideal solution would be for the dbmirror author(s) to agree
to relicense it as BSD. If no go, then push it over to gborg.

Okay, I agree with Peter (re: moving dbmirror to gborg pre-v7.3), since
its something that is actually new in v7.3 (ala libpqxx) ... and I agree
with you that rserv should join it on gborg *after* v7.3 is released ...

Speaking of contrib/rserv ... has anyone updated it for 7.3? I have not
looked at it, but I'd be unsurprised if it needs work for schemas.

I'm wiling to talk to some people here at Navtech about relicensing
dbmirror as BSD but, if its going to be moved to gborg anyway in 7.4 then
my preference would be to not relicense it.
If its going to stay in contrib for the forseable future(at least until
the postgres-r replication stuff is ready) then there's a good chance I
can arrange for it to be relicensed.

I understand your feeling, but that leaves us with a hard decision.
Marc wants to skinny down contrib, which means pushing out stuff that
isn't fairly widely used. dbmirror being a new item, it doesn't have
any track record of use; and so there's very little to set on the other
side of the scales against the its-the-wrong-license argument.
I haven't tried dbmirror myself, but it looks useful; I'd vote for
keeping it in the distribution *if* the license is BSD. Otherwise
I'll have to vote not to.
regards, tom lane

I forwarded the relicense request up to the decision makers here and he
said that he would look it over and he was SUPPOSED to get get to me last
week. I'll try bugging him for some kind of answer tomorrow.
