I have done an exhaustive (and exhausting) search of the documentation, the
pg_tables and the Internet and have discovered to my great dismay that there
appears to be no way of extracting the x and y coordinates from a geometric
point. If true, this seems to be a singularity surprisingly close to the
origin for a project as mature as postgreSQL. Unfortunately I have already
developed a data model assuming this basic functionality would be present.
Any plans to add this in the near future?
Thanks,
Jeff Patterson
