---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 - Add a convertor from/to FDO/Microsoft geometry format
  - Pass the geometry at insert, update and spatial select using binds to
 avoid
 ToString() conversion
  - Move to a new SQL driver DRIVER={SQL Server Native Client 10.0}
  - This driver behaves a bit different than the standard one (at least we
 can
 bind big geometries) and a few things had to be fixed.

 Note: in order to be able to use the provider you need to install
 Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 10.0
