[postgis] freefs 0.9a released - os wfs implementation

[Cameron Shorter]

As I mentioned to Paul before, I'm particularly interested in
transaction support.  I want to build maps - full description at:
http://mapbuilder.sourceforge.net
Hence the use of the geotools applet as a client.

However you may want to check out a few of the WMS clients and add WFS
support to them.
I hope I'm not blowing Stepan's thunder by pointing out he has an alpha
WMS client coming at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/seeyou
and
http://gis.ceu.cz/mapserver/doc_screenshots.html
