This release has greatly improved the Geoserver WMS capabilities.
Major Changes
-------------
1. Geoserver now passes all WFS and WMS CITE tests
2. Geoserver WMS now does reprojection
You can use "&SRS=NONE" if you dont want to do any reprojection.
3. Geoserver now allows you to define your geoserver data directory
(previously called "GEOSERVER_HOME") - see below
4. Added a bunch of "helpers" for SRS (spatial referencing system) since
people will have to define their SRSs now
5. Full SLD schema validation support
Minor Changes
-------------
1. bug fixes
2. set of lite renderer improvements
3. added a WFS lock tutorial
(http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/Feature+Locking)
4. upgraded to latest geotools
You can define your geoserver data directory in three ways:
1."GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR" system property.
this will most likely have come from "java -DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=..."
or from you web container's GUI
2. "GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR" in the web.xml document:
<context-param>
<param-name>GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR</param-name>
<param-value>c:\myGeoserverData</param-value>
</context-param>
3. Defaults to the old behavior - ie. the application root - usually
"server/geoserver" in your .WAR.
To make a new one of these data directories, just:
1. create the data directory
2. copy "data/" from an already running geoserver
3. create a "WEB-INF/" directory
5. copy "catalog.xml" and "services.xml" into the WEB-INF/ directory
