[postgis-users] The Old Who is using PostGIS survey again?

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Regina,

Are you aware of the that has been done with SpatiaLite? It is a postGIS 
like extension to SQLite database. It is almost equivalent functionality 
to PostGIS and my guess is that mush or all of what you have written 
probably also pertains to SpatiaLite which might widen the value of your 
book.

Best regards,
