Improved PostGIS-Interface

[Jan-Oliver Wagner]

Hello Jens,

have you had contact with the psychopg people meanwhile?

I just added a link to your posting on
http://thuban.intevation.org/roadmap.html, so people interested in this
can more easily find it.

BTW: Have you used the profiling extension of Thuban to analyse
the performance increase?

Best

	Jan
