Exactly so. Strictly speaking, PostGIS shouldn't be in the business of generating anything except WKT and WKB, the application level can take the rest. But realistically, utility functions for generating output representations make buildings apps easier. Since these KML directives are buried inside the geometry representations, we should make it possible to fill them in. _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list [email protected] http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
