Slony-I 1.0.1 also Released

The 1.0.1 release of Slony-I fixes a possible race condition in the replication data selection. Under very rare conditions it was possible to lose log records, causing the slaves to miss the updates and drift apart from the master.
The update is available from http://slony.info and for production installations, only the slon executable needs to be replaced on all nodes and the slon process restarted.
