[OpenLayers-Dev] inheritance with Geometry

[Cameron Shorter]

Chris, you are right,
I made the mistake of trusting the JSDocs which only show one Polygon 
class. There seems to be two.
http://dev.openlayers.org/docs/index.html
http://dev.openlayers.org/docs/overview-summary-Polygon.js.html

So it looks like there are some opportunities for improvement in jsdoc.

However, I still have a problem accessing  some of the Geometry 
functions from the Polygon class.
Ie, when I call polygon.calculateBounds() I get the error:
polygon.calculateBounds is not a function.
