<P><FONT SIZE=2>Personally if you got rid of those GArrays I'd be fine since it looks like you are introducing new versions with same functionality.<BR>
<BR>
While you are building your big spreadsheet of doom. Don't forget to add those 20 someodd functions we really want to get rid of.<BR>

<BR>
I've flipped all the aggregate functions that used to build arrays the<BR>
old way to use the new code (at r3565).<BR>
<BR>
ST_MakeLine( geometry )<BR>
ST_Polygonize( geometry )<BR>
ST_Collect( geometry )<BR>
ST_Union( geometry )<BR>
ST_Accum( geometry )<BR>
<BR>
These are all on the new code now. For comparison, I've left behind<BR>
two legacy implementations, that will disappear before release:<BR>
<BR>
ST_Accum_old( geometry )<BR>
ST_Union_old( geometry )<BR>
<BR>
I also thought that<BR>
<BR>
ST_MakeLine( geometry[] )<BR>
ST_Polygonize( goemetry[] )<BR>
ST_Collect( geometry[] )<BR>
ST_Union( geometry[] )<BR>
<BR>
were all more "in the spirit of PostgreSQL" so I have added them.<BR>
<BR>
I will agitate for the removal of<BR>
<BR>
ST_Makeline_Garray( geometry[] )<BR>
et al<BR>
<BR>
later, as I build my big spreadsheet-of-doom.<BR>
<BR>
