I was wondering what the current status of the replacement for
TypeRepository is. I read once that Catalog should replace it one day.
Another question. When will geoserver replace data sources with data
stores?

I was wondering what the current status of the replacement for
TypeRepository is. I read once that Catalog should replace it one day.
The replacement is more or less CatalogConfig. The locking functionality
moved to geotools, with the LockingManager class. I think right now it
implements Catalog - the plan is to expand Catalog even more and move much
of the geoserver config there. Check out
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=GEOS-14 for some more
information, it has our irc discussion on configuration attached. If you
have anything you'd like to see add it as a comment to the issue. So the
status is that the replacement is in place, but will go through another
iteration in the next month or so.

It's just about done, available in the 1.1beta release. The code is all
on the 'wms-merge' branch, I just haven't had time to merge it into head,
but it's on my todo list. Most of the bugs are ironed out, and it'd be
great if you could give it a try on oracle. I'm hoping to get the 1.1.0
release out in the next week or two. The web admin configuration will be
a 1.2 release, probably at the end of January.
