This is part 7: Discovery and Propagation. With this, we complete everything about the protocol part of Generalized Consensus. There are a few more advanced topics to cover: They are needed for running in production.

One of our goals is to make this approach work for Postgres via Multigres. But the principles can be used to implement your own solutions also. This will make Durability and High Availability more accessible for users.
