   I was looking at the wordpress tables and in wp_posts table I found that there are 3 type of post status,

   - publish
   - inherit
   - revision
   - any more??

   I was wondering what's the difference among these and how wordpress determines which one to show when a post/blog is viewed? For the same post, I found there are multiple versions with types publish, revision and inherit.

   I was trying to create an extension but need to know how this works so I can pull the correct/latest post uniquely.

   Post status:
   publish - A published post or page
   inherit - a revision
   pending - post is pending review
   private - a private post
   future - a post to publish in the future
   draft - a post in draft status
   trash - post is in trashbin (available with 2.9)

   So post_status of 'publish' and post_type of 'post' for your query.

   Review:
   query_posts()
