Stop telling lies and your problem will solve itself.
I did not lie. I stand by my original statement and see no reason to retract or revise it. I'm not "telling lies" as you claim -- I'm stating what I believe is true. You may disagree, but that doesn't make either one of us a liar. > >> Srsly? �You're claiming that these are comparable to PostGIS? > > They have served me well. What problems are you having? Oh, just that they were too underpowered to be of any use at all in implementing a simple geocoded system (terrestrial coordinates, spheroidal distance calculation) -- which PostGIS does beautifully. MySQL's spatial features might be OK for some abstract geometry use cases, but that's about it. > > > -- > Greg Donald > http://destiney.com/ Best, -- Marnen Laibow-Koser http://www.marnen.org [email protected] -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
