PostGIS 0.7.4 Released

PostGIS 0.7.4 has been released. This release is a maintenance release, including some important bug fixes to the shp2pgsql data loader and miscellaneous fixes and code scrubbing throughout the system. Version 7.3.X of PostgreSQL is now supported, although explicit support for "schemas" has not been added yet.

The next release of PostGIS will include support for spatial predicates (Relate(), Contains(), Touches(), Disjoint(), etc), based on the GEOS library of spatial functions. Early releases of this functionality will be available in CVS shortly and will be announced here and on the users mailing list.
