We need something as good as MySQL Replication.
I certainly hope not, I was hoping for a reliable replication solution instead. Wow is the information you get searching for something like "mysql replication corruption [replay log|bin log]" scary. I also appreciate fun bits like how you'll get completely quiet master/slave mismatches if you should do something crazy like, say, use LIMIT the wrong way (see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/replication-features.html for more fun like that).
Anyway, you seem to be unaware that built-in replication for PostgreSQL already is moving along, with an implementation that's just not quite production quality yet, and might make into the next version after 8.4 if things go well. That's probably why it's not on the survey--everybody knows that's important and it's already being worked on actively.
P.S. another Google search, this one for "postgresql replication support", finds the mythical company that sells multiple products and support for this purpose on hit #2 for me. Or you could use the alternate approach of looking at the jobs of the everyone who's been giving your a hard time in this thread...
