That reasoning no doubt explains why we don't have *any* rtree-like opclasses that got the left/overleft/right/overright semantics right the first time :-(. Greg Stark is right that the GIST API could probably be simpler --- in particular it would be interesting to see if we could offer a default picksplit function that most opclasses could use. But that doesn't mean that the rtree API is exactly trivial. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
