Description:
Now that we have the nice delegate structure set up for FeatureResponses I'm wondering about adding other output formats. The one that springs immediately to mind is Shapefiles. It would be cool if GeoServer had Shapefile as an advertised output format, and if requested the delegate would create a gzipped shapefile, with the .shp, .shx, .dbf and whatnot. IanS already wrote code to write out shapefiles for geotools, I think it just needs to be adapted to this purpose. What do people think?
