PostGIS is OpenGIS Compliant!

It is finally official! After several years of unofficial "conformance" we recently took the plunge and submitted our PostGIS 1.1 compliance tests to the OpenGIS Consortium for testing. Last week we received the news that we are compliant. That means our web site can proudly display the OpenGIS button badge, and... well not much more than that. It is still the same database after all. But it is still nice to get some external validation.
