[postgis] freefs 0.9a released - os wfs implementation

[Rob Hranac]

Paul,

I am glad that you approve.  My compliments on a very nice database product
that made it possible.  Cameron already answered your client question.  His
is applet-based.  I am considering making a more server-oriented client.
Some sort of MapServer integration would be nice, but I don't know anything
about its code yet, so I am not sure as to what the best path might be.

I am working on adding filter stuff in now - do you have a timeframe for
spatially-enabled predicate support?  FreeFS currently features zero
transactional support; i haven't even started on that yet, so I have nothing
insightful to say about it.  Will let you know when I have more of a plan
and some thoughts.

Regards,
Rob
