Subject: "Clustering"
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2006 20:25:06 +0100
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

The heading "Multi-Master Replication Using Clustering" doesn't make 
sense to me.  Clustering is bunching more than host together to achieve 
a common goal.  Thus multimaster replication may be a way to achieve 
clustering, but clustering is not a way to achieve multimaster 
replication.  I don't actually see clustering defined in the 
documentation.  Can someone explain the categorization?

(FWIW, I think "Clustering For Parallel Query Execution" later in the 
list is an appropriate use of the term.)
