Few comments:
=============
1.
<para>
- True if this slot is currently actively being used
+ True if this slot is currently currently being streamed
</para></entry>
currently shouldn't be used twice.
2.
- /* The time since the slot has become inactive */
+ /* The time slot sychronized was stopped. */
TimestampTz inactive_since;
Would it be better to say: "The time slot synchronization was stopped."?
3.
This is useful for slots on the
+ standby that are intended to be synced from a primary server
I think it is better to be explicit here and probably say: "This is
useful for slots on the standby that are being synced from a primary
server .."
