Jesus.

* Anyone who doesn't know what ST_Intersects means should go find out.
And I mean by writing an application, not by using google
* Anyone who thinks that processing relations is magically wonderful
should go reimplement the translucent colouring on the cyclemap
without any overlap artifacts.
* Anyone who thinks that "GIS Stuff" is too complex for portable
devices should think long and carefully about the word
"pre-processing" and c.f. osm2pgsql, mkgmap, XAPI and every other tool
we have for that already. Oh, and write an application that uses them,
not just read the wiki.

This has to be one of the absolute worst discussions for people
asserting things they actually have no experience of doing. It's
cringe-worthily painful to read.

Cheers,
Andy
