I know, but at least one other person did consider it a tangent. ;)
Again, I've been curious why, not questioning. In the majority of
cases, people have never heard of it, or worse yet, think it's based
on OpenLDAP.
Of course, setting up multi-master replication from a GUI quickly
gets them to take more interest. "Oh, you mean I could have a
pair of masters over here for this domain, who are read-only
replicas of this other domain, and manage all that from one GUI?" ;)

Terrible marketing. Nobody knows about it. It is a secret.
One idea would be to put together a basic talk (history, what it does, why to use it, simple example) and submit the abstract to EVERY computer conference.
feel free to contact me directly (off list) and I am happy to help.
