Thanks Gabe! I would still suggest against moving the tickets to milestones
yourself, all new tickets should still undergo the weekly triage so that all
core developers see it and we can decide the target milestone.

With this one, it would likely indeed end in 4.1.x, especially given you
contributed a patch, but still...

For the patch itself, I still think the wording is not as should be:

- following line is not entirely trie, you can install can create replica also
on servers installed with ipa-replica-install :-)
+A replica can be created on any IPA master server installed with
ipa\-server\-install.

- Following line may also use some rewording:
However if you want to create a replica as a redundant CA with an existing
replica or master, ipa\-replica\-prepare should be run on a replica or master
that contains the CA.

Maybe we should add subsection to DESCRIPTION section, with following lines:

- A replica should only be installed on the same or higher version of IPA on
the remote system.
- A replica with PKI can only be installed from replica file prepared on a
master with PKI

Makes sense?

Martin
