<DIV></DIV>Thanks for the heads-up Regina,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'm not really over most of the issues with type etc, but from my
perspective :</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'm not a big fan of doing things because of specifications written in the
past - I've never really understood the geometry_columns table as anything
except a metadata table - and while I'm sure that there are advantages in terms
of clients connection management, as someone who rarely has more than 50 -80
tables (each with only 1 or 2 geometry columns) and only Gigabytes of data, not
Terabytes, since the introduction of functions like populate_geometry_columns(),
I've not worried too much about it. It was a pain prior to that!</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>My concerns (from my use case!) would relate to the risk that clients might
struggle to find a table that doesn't exist, or isn't the one that is updated. I
suspect that applications under current development would / could be changed,
and those that are older may not support the update to 2.0 anyway. Probably
better not to go the hybrid route - it might get worse than ugly.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If you are going to make a change, I agree that a major version is the time
to do it. We would probably selectively not migrate certain applications rather
than going down the line of upgrading and rewriting code - I don't suppose that
is a surprise to many people!</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>

<DIV>I'm forever creating tables as subsets of existing tables so it is a
truly useful function, however, I've suffered the same concerns - perhaps
it is worth pursuing the name being changed?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I've also never really understood the distinction between the populate_
and the probe_ functions? the probe_ one appears to be a 'lite' version, but
it may have some other purpose that I don't understand?</DIV>
