I just wanted to check if there are any updates on the preferred way to upgrade a group of servers that are using streaming replication with minimal downtime.

Is that still pretty much the situation today with 9.2 and 9.3?
Charles,
I am also concerned about upgrading our 9.2 servers which are set up using streaming replication. I would prefer not to copy the data over via rsync, since that is pretty time consuming. Does anybody know if there any other options to do an in-place upgrade?
Thanks,
Grant
