Hi everyone,

The Windows installer for PostGIS 1.1.5, compiled with PROJ 4.4.9 and
GEOS 2.2.3 is now available for download from the Refractions website.
For this latest release, the installer has undergone a major rewrite
which includes the following features:


	- Automatic generation of a "template_postgis" database
	This allows applications to create spatially-enabled databases
	using SQL or the command line (see the PostGIS documentation
	for more details)

	- All temporary files used during installation are now
	created with the Windows temporary directory, rather than in
	the PostgreSQL directory

	- Friendlier error reporting
	In the case of an error occurring, the installer will
	automatically open the corresponding log file on screen to
	make spotting error messages easier

	- Many other small changes/tidy ups/fixes


As usual, please post any feedback regarding the installer to the
mailing lists.


Kind regards,

Mark.
