[postgis-devel] [PostGIS] #440: [wktraster] Consolidate st_gdalgeotransform and st_esriworldfile into st_georeference

[Pierre Racine]

Maybe we should agree on changes in the specs in the forum before polluting Trac too much.

Otherwise I agree with this change. The default should be 'GDAL' if no second parameter is passed.

Is it really faster to implement such a function in C instead of plPgSQL? I know one is implemented in C and the other one in plPgSQL.
