+
+The PostGIS development team is super excited, can hardly believe that they are
+actually doing this, aren't maybe even sure that they are ready to make this
+kind of commitment, not so young, and not when we have so much more living to do,
+but:
+
+PostGIS 2.0.0 is complete and [available for download]({{< loc "postgis.release_source">}}/postgis-2.0.0.tar.gz).
+
+<!--more-->
+
+The development process for 2.0 has been very long, but has resulted in a
+release with a number of exciting new features.
+
+* Raster data and raster/vector analysis in the database
+* Topological models to handle objects with shared boundaries
+* PostgreSQL typmod integration, for an automagical `geometry_columns` table
+* 3D and 4D indexing
+* Index-based high performance nearest-neighbour searching
+* Many more vector functions including
+ * `ST_Split`
+ * `ST_Node`
+ * `ST_MakeValid`
+ * `ST_OffsetCurve`
+ * `ST_ConcaveHull`
+ * `ST_AsX3D`
+ * `ST_GeomFromGeoJSON`
+ * `ST_3DDistance`
+* Integration with the PostgreSQL 9.1 extension system
+* Improved commandline shapefile loader/dumper
+* Multi-file import support in the shapefile GUI
+* Multi-table export support in the shapefile GUI
+* A geo-coder optimized for free US Census TIGER (2010) data
+
+We are greatly indebted to our large community of beta testers who valiantly
+tested PostGIS 2.0.0 and reported bugs so we could squash them before release
+time.
+
+And also we want to thank our parents for making PostGIS possible.
+
+Yours,
+
+The PostGIS development team
