[postgis-devel] Re: LRS functions

[Christoph Spoerri]

I wanted to check with you on how my LRS functions could be added to the 
current postgis code base. Do you have certain procedures , documents or QAQC 
checks that need to be followed?

I would like to provide the LRS functions to all the users and not just to 
users with an imminent need.

thanks,
Christoph
