[Geoserver-users] KML Reflector & KMZ Format

Hi,

The default parameters in a KML reflector request has the format set to KMZ, but I am actually getting back KML. Is anyone aware of this behaviour? Or is KML reflector behaving as expected and the document needs to be updated?

http://docs.geoserver.org/2.6.x/en/user/googleearth/features/kmlreflector.html

Thanks,
Danny

I remember there were significant inconsistencies between documented and
actual behavior in the reflector, but don't know which one is the "right"
behavior.
I'd amend the docs to follow what the code does, assuming it's possible to
ask for KMZ, and that it's just the default that's different than documented

Cheers
