In PostGIS 1.5, the geography type was introduced -- it provides

@ -36,10 +36,10 @@ When GeoDjango's spatial backend initializes on PostGIS, it has to perform
an SQL query to determine the version in order to figure out what
features are available. Advanced users wishing to prevent this additional
query may set the version manually using a 3-tuple of integers specifying
the major, minor, and subminor version numbers for PostGIS. For example,
to configure for PostGIS 1.5.2 you would use::
the major, minor, and micro version numbers for PostGIS. For example,
to configure for PostGIS X.Y.Z you would use::
POSTGIS_VERSION = (1, 5, 2)
POSTGIS_VERSION = (X, Y, Z)
