Many also don't understand the "databases" bit of spatial databases ;-)

To be fair, we don't exactly exhibit a lot of database power through our 
API (for obvious reasons). It is relatively easy to request all object 
relocations in area A performed by any user whose home base is not in A, 
within the last 2 months, from "a" database, but impossible for Joe 
Mapper to request that from "our" database.

Bye
Frederik
