The next major version of pg_partman has been released.
The biggest new feature is there is now a background worker process (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/bgworker.html) for partition maintenance. This means, for most cases, a separate scheduler is no longer required. This also means that PostgreSQL 9.4 at a minimum is required for 2.0.0. See the README and doc file for more info on setting this up.
There are also now no longer distinct partition trigger types (static & dynamic). These have been combined into a single trigger format that better handles a wider range of incoming data to partition sets. Instructions for migrating existing partition sets can be found in the extension update file (pg_partman--1.8.7--2.0.0.sql).
