Hi Dave,

I like the way that you are suggesting a distinction between OGC/non-OGC
functions - it can sometimes be hard to find the location of a
particular function if you don't know where you're looking. Also how
about putting all the LWGEOM stuff in a separate directory, just so that
when the existing code becomes obselete then we can guarantee that there
are no unexpected 'dependencies' between the two versions.


Cheers,

Mark.
