Hello to everyone

I received some shape files that now I want to include into geoserver.
I realised that the projection files have no epsg code defined and the
included values cannot be mapped to any other existing epsg code.
What is now the proceeding to do? I propose>
- propose new epsg code to epsg comitee
- extend geoserver to support that type

thanks for any help

This would be good, but take quite a bit of time, and would be accepted
only if the coordinate system is in wide use afaik. Anyways, a tentative
would be good.

- extend geoserver to support that type

You can do that yourself by creating a new WKT definition in the
user_projections/epsg.properties file, in your data dir, provided
you're using Geoserver 1.5.1 onwards.
The data dir we ship with has some examples.

Hope this helps.
