Hi,


> streets

Contrary to my suggestion in XML_Schema, I now prefere to use a list of
line segments instead of a list of nodes.

This is because I was told, that this is the way big, professional mapping
institutes like the Landesforstamt Hinterföhring does it ;-).

(This is an insider joke. "Hinterföhring" is the standard german word for
anything but "big" and "professional" ;-). Anyway, it sounds good to me to
do it like other geodetic applications.)


Ciao, Imi.
