I have started an ideas page .. deadline is next monday. Let's review ideas at next weeks IRC meeting. It is *very* important that we list the potential members on this page for FrankW to have any sort of success representing us.
Thanks for writing in an Idea Chris .... but we should have more Do we have an existing page for GeoServer ideas we can link to (or steal from?)
JTileCache
Contact Chris Holmes
TileCache is a great little piece of software designed to cache WMS servers like GeoServer. We love it, but it's a pain for our users to install since it requires python and a whole different configuration system. We would like to build it as a module in GeoServer, included by default and easily configured through the web GUI. Having it in Java will lead to additional advantages, like being able to plug in to better caches like JBoss Cache and OSCache, working with our KML output for nice super-overlays, and hooking up to our transaction engine to automatically expire the cache when users make modifications to their data.
Great performance improvements for users
New module in GeoServer, and thus freedom to explore implementation details
But constrained problem with clear model on what needs to be done.
