Hi all,
I would like to promote the teradata community module to a fully supported extension. The module itself simply pulls geotools datastore and doesn’t do much on its own. Similar in nature to the oracle or sql server extensions.
The geotools datastore has recently been approved as an extension and backported to the stable branch. The relevant discussion can be found in this email thread [1]. So I would like to do the same for the geoserver equivalent. Move to supported and backport to stable branch. In terms of the geoserver checklist [2]:
- Users
As described in the gt thread the users are not really show up on our email list yet but customers of teradata have indeed been using the geoserver extension
- Maintainer
myself
- Stable
Being a simple wrapper around the datastore there is not much going on there… no planned changes for the forseeable future.
- Test coverage
Not much to test at the gs level but the gt datastore maintains around 55% coverage.
- IP Check
Good to go
- User docs

- Contributor agreement
No issues there.
So… any objections?

Not really. Question, will it lead GeoServer to world domination? 
(just kidding!)

+1 from me.
Although I'm somewhat on the outside these days I get a sense of a
more orderly and better communicated evolution with fewer nasty
suprises and fantastic levels of mutual support across teams and
geographic boundaries. Respect!
