You might want to see http://slony.info; that has Rather More Recent
information about Slony-I...

There are commits to CVS on a reasonably regular basis:
http://lists.slony.info/pipermail/slony1-commit/

And the last releases were in May...  I've been sitting on
1.2.17/2.0.3 for a while; probably should try to get those releases
out shortly.

But you mayn't necessarily want to use either Slony-I or Bucardo; if
what you need is purely for backup, then it's quite possible that the
"standby" features added in 8.0 (and improving in successors) may be
adequate.  (AKA "WAL shipping"/"Log shipping")
