Actions
-
H2 removal backport
Starting to get backported
-
it will ignore the existing h2 database (leaving it on disk), and create
a new hsql database
-
update notes describe the manual step (only required if you have
external h2 server)
Notes:
-
netCDF still remains using H2, ideas/funding welcome
-
GeoFence also uses H2 as the default storage for rules but it’s possible
to migrate
-
H2 was intended to be the second version of HSQL, and then it wasn’t …
(HSQL has a version 2 now which is not H2).
Release preparations
Peter Smythe has volunteered (thanks!) Jody is going to help guide 
-
Petre needs access to jira access
-
Build server
-
Website commit access
-
Jody will probably do the ruby step
Jody automated making a release announcement post, so something to test and
provide feedback.
FOSS4G planning
Jody is running a workshop 
code-sprint:
-
going to do the first stage of opengis transition stuff
-
sprint priority - identify decisions that need to made
-
referencing - integrate interfaces into geotools packages
-
metadata - used in a few places in referencing (used for citations)
-
remove geometry (keep bounding box and ordinate used by referencing)
-
filter / expression / style have immutable / mutability boundary
-
presently we clone / copy all the time as we can never be sure
-
idea: fix the javadocs to be clear on what is happening
-
idea: see proposal for using builder to “clone” for editing
-
aside: We should check back on OGC board meeting; they may provide
input/funding

jody: Ask user-list for examples
Bug splat / chit chat
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-10983
-
coverage.xml generated with srs actually can read
-
but the raster store cannot actually connect, user defined projection
-
a solution is to ignore user defined projection if possible (example
vendor WKT geotiff tag)

geopackage output cleanup tmp files
