http://postgis.refractions.net/download    

The 1.2.0 release of PostGIS is now available. This is a major new 
feature release, with the first PostGIS support for "curve" types, and 
initial support for the ISO SQL/MM suite of spatial database functions. 
Over time, the 1.2.X series will elaborate on the basic support provided 
in this release:

     * New Curve type, based on the ISO SQL/MM model for curves.
     * Index binding for curves, allowing them to use the same R-Tree 
indexes as the other types.
     * Serialization and deserialization functions for Curve, allowing 
them to be dumped and restored.
     * Performance shortcuts for Contains and Within to optimize 
point-in-polygon case.
     * Support for most of the ST_* and SE_* spatial SQL functions used 
by the ESRI ArcSDE spatial SQL interfaces.
     * Documentation of the new SQL/MM functions and Curve types.
