Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the feedback on this. I intend to finalize
RFC-69<http://www.mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-69.html>this
weekend. The algorithm itself seems to be fast enough and working
correctly, and I'll do some further tests to make sure the query handling
satisfies with our requirements.

Best regards,

Tamas
