> As part of the Fmaps project (Fmaps.sourceforge.net), Eric Miller is
> developing some new geographic types for Postgres. We have several questions
> relating to the implementation of new types, variable types, and especially
> how to index them. For the moment we are developing the new types/functions
> as extensions, should it stays that way or what does it imply to be merged
> in the main distribution.

> We will be glad if someone can point us to some documentation on the
> subject, as the developer doc that comes with PG is very short on the
> subject.
>
> For Fmaps to be complete, we will need a toasted version of PG where the 8kB
> limit has been removed, and works with custom types. Can someone give a
> status on toasted PG (working, not working, stable enough, unstable,...)
