A slight clarification It is not just the news doc that is missing the information. Also the documentation:http://postgis.org/documentation/manual-svn/ST_Geometry_Same.htmlis unchanged as I understands it there is now no difference in result between ~= and = as spatial operatorsbut ~= uses index? Am I right? /Nicklas
