Hello.
I'm working this summer as an intern an OpenGeo with dwins guiding me, and I've been working on integrating MapFish's PDF printing tools to be used with GeoServer. So far I've gotten it working-- most of the dependencies and such are stored in a new community module.
I've also needed to modify the main POM in a couple places to:
-use version 3.1 of commons-httpclient (Apache Commons HTTP client), moved to the main POM
-update iText to use version 2.1.5
The community POM is also updated to reflect the new project. I reckon I'd need SVN permissions that I might share these updates, or at least permissions to add a community module and someone else to make the updates to higher-level POMs.
Future goals include:
-Working to make it so the module can directly receive vector data from within the server, rather than using a network connection to localhost
-Integrating the module with GeoExplorer to make printing easier
Thanks,
Alan Gerber
Hi Alan,

These should be no issue afaik. Usually library upgrades such as this don't cause many problems. Have you done a full test run with the new library versions to ensure no breakages to any test cases?

Yup, adding a new community module just requires a +1 from a PSC member. I don't think you will have any problems with that, this is a much anticipated addition to geoserver. Consider this a +1.
You will need to join the geoserver project on codehaus. Instructions here:
http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/1+Getting+Commit+Status
Once you apply to join, let us know and one of the despots will grant you access. Another doc that might of use to you is the community module process:
http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+22+-+Community+Modules
Future goals include:
-Working to make it so the module can directly receive vector data from within the server, rather than using a network connection to localhost
-Integrating the module with GeoExplorer to make printing easier
Can't wait!!

Thanks,

Cool, I have applied the version upgrades.
itext from 2.0.6 -> 2.1.5
commons-httpclient from 2.0 to 3.1
Note that the commons-httpclient was not needed really by geoserver (aside from the new printing stuff), it is a dependency dragged in by geotools.
