[postgis-users] About multi() and WKT on 1.0.0rc4

[ksa-nil5]

Hi, strk.

I have found some interesting.

test_export=# select postgis_full_version();
                                          postgis_full_version

I think, 'MULTILINESTRING(SRID=300001;(53860 ....' is not WKT. I do not understand what does it mean. Is it right or I found an error?
