Hi,
so the remaining issues in the WCS test suite turned out to
be an issue with the old WCS test suite, and we never
stumbled upon it because it's in the update sequence tests
(first release we do have update sequence support in wcs).
OGC people say that the issue is fixed in the new WCS 1.0
test engine and I can confirm that, after fixing a couple
of issues I have WCS 1.0 tests all pass on the TeamEngine
(it's not something you can try out unfortunately, it's
still under private testing, I happen to have it only
because I'm doing the WCS 1.1.1 implementation so I have
access to all the new tests being prepared).
So, long story short, we pass all CITE test suites and
thus GeoServer 1.6.1 is ready to roll out.
Tomorrow I'll be releasing GT 2.4.1 (after updating the
documentation for query hints) and hopefully right
after that we can start working on the GeoServer 1.6.1
release.
Let me know if there is any trouble, tomorrow when
I wake up I'll be all alone (with a working svn hopefully).
Cheers
Andrea
