  • everyone: look at GSIP 80

2.2.0 final

Lack of bug reports again 2.2-RC3

  • Go, Flight.
    CAS issues blocking the release? → move it to extension, Christian?? :slight_smile:
    Jody: the less changes the better ← for once is he learning?

Who does the release? jdeolive my hero!

Release notes: big, cumulate everything we did for GeoServer 2.2.0 series
Ideas:

  • see format of geotools release anouncement ( download, thanks, About 2.2.0, About 2.2 Series …).
  • link to blog posts (for example app schema blog posts)
  • collect content on wiki or titan pad

GeoTools 8.1 Feedback

aaime: thank people that have taken part by name
jdeolive: grab list form pull request
aaime: from git log

Test framework upgrade (warp 10, engage!)

Proposal: http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+80±+Testing+Overhaul

Wien code sprint: piggy back on the OL one

Everyone to read Justin’s proposal.

CSW work

  • Getting close, almost CITE when using the xml-file-based store
  • Wedneday is aaime is going to fork-off
  • Niels moving on with ISO records on top of GeoServer catalog

Q&A:

  • Any use of regular metadata (keywords, description)? —> not touched right now
  • Any test function → concate attributes into string and then use LIKE function

Help:

  • See email last week on Complex Feature with simple content / XPath Hell?
  • PropertyAccessor conflicts (jxpath: no priority, global registry, etc…)

Feature Collection RFCS

Closeable:

Remove deprecated methods:

  1. Create branch
  2. Update GeoServer
  3. Update uDig
  4. Pull the trigger

SOS

Florence Tan working for three months.
SOAP in WFS 2.0, checkbox implementation not heavily tested
Non-app-schema source as an alternative.
Working demo, canned database.
(Jody: go for records!)
Approach: Precook database with mappings vs doing the maping dance a-la App Schema.
SOS 101 document. Executive summary.

Unconference in Brisbane in November

Open-source geospatial sprint and workshops
Organizers: Jody, Ben, Nathan Woodrow (QGIS), Pavan Sikka (CSIRO)
November: 15-16

User List Update

General trends from user mailings during two last weeks:

  • WCS and WPS are coming more popular
  • very few WPS clients (and mostly specifc to a set server)
  • issue serving up large coverage? aaime to look up issue
  • Coverages perhaps harder to handle with image/IO than with GDAL and Mapserver

Incubation Meeting

Next Monday; no progress on GeoServer to report.
