Ok.

The SQL Proxy i am using (HA-JDBC) has some limitations with regard to
getting it's "cluster" back into sync.  If ha-jdbc uses the wrong DB
(one that has been out of action for a while) as the starting point
for the cluster it will then try and delete stuff from the other DB's
on their introduction to the cluster.
I thought the easiest way to control a complete "cluster" restart
would be to extract the last write date and introduce the one with the
last write date first, this will make certain the above scenario does
not happen.

Sorry, I hadn't seen this post when I wrote my lost one.

Yeah, I think having a timestamp column with a rule so it has the
current timestamp when written to and then selecting for the max in each
table would work out.  You could probably get fancier, but I'm guessing
that cluster startup is a pretty rare thing, so it's probably easier to
write a script that selects all the tablenames from pg_tables (???)
