New Web Site and Release 0.6.1

We have a new, hopefully more aesthetically pleasing, site design now! At a minimum, the multiple-page approach gives more space for adding information.

Also, version 0.6.1 has been released, with improvements to the loader/dumper and some cygwin bug fixes.

Release 0.6.0

Yet more OGC specification functions, changes to internal format to support SRID, added SPATIAL_REF_SYS and GEOMETRY_COLUMNS metadata tables. Upgraded Mapserver support.

PostGIS Presentation @ Open Source Database Summit

Dave Blasby will be giving a presentation on spatial databases in general and PostGIS in particular at the Open Source Database Summit in Providence, Rhode Island on September 25, 2001.

Release 0.2

Several new functions have been added, most notably support for Well-Known Binary. Documentation is getting better and there is a WKB example application. Some testing has been done and retrieval speed on a million-tuple table with a GiST index for a small query frame is under 0.1 seconds on our test machine. Looking very good!

Pre-Release 0.1

This release is largely untested and does not include data loading. The JDBC and documentation are pretty primitive as well. Please try it and send feedback to the mailing list.
