-> all the community events and work could happen there. place it in the middle of nowhere in the ocean - no sco lies would bother us, obsds hackathon could happen there, no export restrictions on strong crypto; no disturbance at all.. wouldnt that be great?
the install will go well - freebsds setup is pretty straight forward and kernel recompiling is a quit normal task:-) - I got much help from http://www.bsdvault.net their howtos are well written and user driven.
the cool thing about absolute bsd is, that michael wrote it as stp by step guide for setting up a server. on the other hand portions of it can (and should) be taken to drive your home workstation. it gives you the tools and the insight you need to do tasks on your own - and tells you how to behave on bsd related mailinglists (and even when you are "allowed" to post:-))
I think one master who replicates the written records wont make sense - at least from the high-availability-point-of-view. If the master dies the whole database cluster would be useless or would need manual interaction (- to promote a new cluster master).
the funny thing about design issues and mcrosoft is, that they MS Press brought out a book called "Writing secure code", where theyre talking about exactly the issues you posted.. so I think they are aware of this but not able doing stuff in that way.
They tell you how important it is to design carefully, but what chance of survival does the best written application have, if it has to run on a bad written basis (a.k.a. IIS, Windows)?
..one can run a mutt without keyboard!

Im really looking forward on absolut openbsd, too

..
multimaster replication would solve that issue
how would dancing trees look like?
they have strange ideas about how to fix the overpopulation problem..
