Actions

   -

   Andrea to ask for a 2.23.1 release volunteer
   -

GS 2.22.3 and 2.21.5 released

Both released.

2.21.5 misses the Windows installer, going to skip it.

Careful with release jobs, the choice of JDK is not a parameter, but part
of the configuration.

Jody tested plugin to have JDK as a parameter but did not work for him.

We are 11 days away from 2.23.1, without volunteer:

   GeoTools PR merge <https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/4282&gt;
   -

   GeoWebCache one to be reviewed
   <https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/pull/1139&gt;
   -

   GeoServer PR TBD

Planetary CRS support (GSIP 219)

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/GSIP-219

PR in GeoTools (ready for review):
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/4284

Proposing to have this module land in plugins directly, see gt-devel.

Also an idea, having a GeoServer extension module for IAU directly, as it’s
essentially just data.
Backport of remote requests checks (GSIP 218)

Main: have to configure a list of safe servers to connect to, for dynamic
styles, remote icons, dynamic data (feature portrayal), WPS remote data.

Backport to 2.23.x or maybe even 2.22.x. Suggestion to backport, with
checks off by default, suggest to enable and add whitelist when upgrading
to a newer version, in release notes.
FOSS4G NA 2023

In Baltimore, call for presentations is open. Andrea and Jody submitted
classic presentations. Add yours!
Modules cleanup

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/6814

Already discussed on devel-list. Blog post? But it takes time to write.

How about a mail to the user list?
OGC API Sprint results

https://www.ogc.org/press-release/developers-invited-to-the-2023-open-standards-and-open-source-software-code-sprint/

Andrea and Jody participated.

Results:

   -

   OGC API module has been split up in single service modules. Source code
   was already modularized
   <https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/tree/main/src/community/ogcapi&gt;,
   packaging
   <https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/tree/main/src/community/release&gt;
   now has been split as well.
   -

   Docker image now supports nightly builds too, one can ask for 2.24.x
   align with community modules

docker run -it -p8080:8080 docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:2.24.x --env
INSTALL_EXTENSIONS=true --env STABLE_EXTENSIONS="css,wps" --env
COMMUNITY_EXTENSIONS="ogcapi-features" docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:2.24.x
