I decided there wasn't time to get anything useful done on it before the
beta2 deadline (which is, more or less, right now). I will take another
look over the next few days.

Esteemed colleague Tom,

We all really need you to fix up max_standby_delay, or, let me do it.

It appears we both agree that more testing would be beneficial. The only
way we are going to get that is by finishing this off and declaring a
new HS-beta.

Please let me know how you wish to proceed. (No answer means I do it.)

Yes, I'll get with it ...

??? What is then?

If it's not the first thing on your priority list, with 9.0 getting
later by the day, maybe we should leave it to Robert and Simon, who *do*
seem to have it first on *their* list?

I swear, when Simon was keeping his branch to himself in August everyone
was on his case. It sure seems like Tom is doing exactly the same thing.

Simon, you have a very legitimate concern. I phoned Tom and he is
planning to start working on the max_standby_delay tomorrow. I am
unclear how it is different from your version, but I hope once Tom is
done we can review his work and decide how to proceed. The fact that we
allowed Tom this huge amount of time to submit an alternative patch is
unusual and hopefully rare.

FYI, Tom and I are hoping to work through all the outstanding issues
before we package up 9.0 beta3 on Thursday, July 8.
