Ok, so you want to add SQL92 architecture to postgis ?
What do you need postgis for in that case ?
Casting to/from the two architectures ?

Please tell us more about your plans, they might be interesting
for more people. 

--strk;


My degree consists in extending the architecture sql92; in a particular manner I have thought to add two tables to it but I don't know if postgres let me to define this architecture.
I don't know if I have to create some teplates for my new architecture or if there are some functions that let me to manage the extension of existing architectures or rather if I have to replan over again without considering already existing.
I'm studying the solutions (if they exist) proposed by others dbms for seeing if these are feasible with postgres.
I accept every critic and/or help since the material on line is few.
