Hello world,

I'm trying to merge a bunch of shapefiles using the syntax below. I could have sworn this was working for me last year, but maybe I just didn't look closely enough at the time.

1. Download 2 or more of these files, unpack somewhere:
http://ftp2.cits.rncan.gc.ca/pub/canvec/50k_gml/094/a/

2. Create shapefile containers from the first GML file:
   ogr2ogr shp-out 094a01_3_0.gml

3. Append the rest:
   ogr2ogr shp-out -append 094a02_3_0.gml 094a03_3_0.gml ...

However only data from the first file are present. Why doesn't this work?

I'm using ogr utiltiies from "GDAL 1.5.3, released 2008/09/09" Osgeo4w (as reported by "gdalinfo --version". I couldn't figure out how to get ogr to report it's number).

I also tried to merge into gml, but the output file was <1kb and empty:
  ogr2ogr -f gml test-merge.gml 094a01_3_0.gml 094a02_3_0.gml



thanks in advance for your time,
