I thought we were changing the name of recvlogical?

I can't find the thread now, but I'm pretty sure that we decided to
change the name of pg_recvlogical, because its inconsistent with other
client utils?  No?

There are others who think this has already happened.

Well, I just compiled beta1, and it's still called recvlogical.

It was named pg_receivelogical initially. Then people argued that that's
too long and voted for pg_recvlogical. I renamed it even though I didn't
particularly like the new name.I fail to see the point in renaming it again. And I haven't seen any
concensus for doing so either.

Greetings,

Ah, I see. There was a name change, and I lost the argument.  Got it.

Yes, I was quoting Douglas Adams.  Sorry it was obscure:

"There are some who believe that if the universe is ever completely
understood, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something
even more incomprehensible. There are others who think this has already
happened..."
