Comment #3 on issue 94 by mark.cav... at siriusit.co.uk: Rename folders/files  
to be more consistent

Regina: this also brings in the issue that since PROJ.4 is compulsary for  
SVN trunk,
should we automatically #include spatial_ref_sys into postgis.sql?

Paul: I don't have a problem with renaming files on a minor version bump.  
Anything
that changes a minor release screams "there have been some changes here,  
please test
first before deployment". So as long as we document this, I don't see this  
being a
problem.

Also, I'd still like to propose version numbering the so/DLL - this will  
make
testing/installing multiple versions so much easier. I don't see upgrades  
being a
problem, since you don't need to know the name of so/DLL containing a  
function to be
able to drop it, and the upgrade script for version X already knows the  
name of its
own so/DLL. I'm sure we can also devise something that will flag big  
warnings/errors
if mixed so/DLL versions are present in the system catalogs.


ATB,

Mark.
