It's quite possible we never brought it up.  
Hey Paul want to bring it up -- you've got all those people you work with on
dev team :)
I'm too shy to bring it up.

I think even a hard-coded ANY upstream would be nice, because one thing strk
can't do is make it happen when people do

ALTER EXTENSION postgis UPDATE;

Having it upstream would fix that.
Right now people would need to know to do

SELECT postgis_extensions_upgrade();

I'm still training people how to do.

SELECT postgis_full_version();

I'm surprised how many clients I have who I had to teach that.


Thanks,
Regina
