New build server
Progress
-
Phase I is done - nightly builds happen, and a release was made.
-
Phase II is about CITE testing - resources needed
-
Phase III online tests (databases etc…)
Q: When are we going to let it send email?
Is it worth doing this before CITE tests work?
Q: Database tests failing?
Not expected to work, database servers are IP locked so we would not expect it to work.
Notes:
-
PSC members should have SSH access, talk to Nick next week if you need access
-
Build server was mostly a normal setup, some notes added to geoserver doc guide (to cover sphinx latex setup requirements)
Ares builds still working, but slowly.
Coordination will be needed for Phase II and Phase III.
Travis build problems
Torben reached out to boundless “devops” - and many of them are on holiday.

Is anything specifically wrong? Is repo throttling travis, or …
Action:
- TB: Follow up with Nick about travis/repo build failures
Multi-Layer SLD GSIP
See link GSIP-161
Revised based on feedback:
-
Work through the example at the end (showing use of multi-layer sld and including some pictures)
-
Layergroup can now contain a mix of layers, layergroups and a new thing “style group” (where the multi-layer sld defines what is drawn)
-
changed the order so the UI was introduced first, and then the implementation changes described
-
Answered andrea’s questions? Torben added an example discussion.
