Going back in time:

Can we harvest the content?

  • Checking the home page many short updates are present and can be ported

  • Many pages that say “read more” are missing the article …

Really early in 2003 you can get content article by article

Removal of stale community modules

GEOSERVER

s3-geotiff

  • Has a volunteer, seems to be taken care of

To discuss:

  • nsg profile = wfs/wms/wmts additions getcapabilities with some versioning and so on …

  • hello / hello_world - needs some updates for developers guide

  • monitor-hibernate - has troubles with scalability due to primary key; keep an example

To remove

  • wfs3 - replaced by ogcapi - features (gone!)

  • qos - modules added some stuff to metadata capabilities experiment during ogc testbed

  • Importer-bdb berkeley - importer storage for cluster geoserver, not used anymore

  • importer-fgdb - requires a windows specific ogr

GEOTOOLS

geotools where to start?

  • Perhaps anything that is not being built? Not in -Dall

  • Does not compile

Things that are not in -Dall:

Remove:

  • gt-gtopo30? Not sure if anyone cares today …

  • image-moasiac-jdbc - no maintainer

  • epsg-oracle - no database update

  • georest - talking to feature service, mapfish, last updated prior 2011

  • jdbc-ingress - remove

Discussion:

Action: Take this to email list, and then update main

Q: How can we avoid googling linking to older versions of docs?

  • S3 cleanup? Do this each time … do this one a week?

  • Can we make jenkins jobs for this …to remove the folder, and then schedule a documentation build

  • Can we keep a placeholder page to link to the now published extension

rclone - “rsync” like tool for S3 … https://rclone.org/
