Thank you for your replay, and for your detailed explanations.
As I said, we're still in the studying phase. Anyway, with a clearer situation in our minds, it will be possible to do some plan also about active partecipation in migrating to GML 3.
Best regards,
Fabio

Oggetto: Re: [Geoserver-users] R: GML 3 application schemaGeoServer can not currently be used to serve GML 3
application schemas.
As part of OWS-4 we're going to be the reference
implementation of WFS
1.1, which will require us to get to GML 3 Simple Features. We were
hoping uDig would also do OWS-4, so we could collaborate and
really hit
the new feature model which would let us do most any
application schema.
But unfortunately they did not.So TOPP isn't sure that we can take the whole task on our own.
The current state is that a _lot_ of work has been done on the new
feature model, the last challenge that remains is to transition it to
GeoTools trunk. We've been burned by not having enough resources to
pull this off right, as we need a number of hands making sure
everything
comes off right. My rough estimate to get things on to trunk
right and
to get real GML 3 output schemas would cost about $60,000
from where we
stand. TOPP has some cycles as part of OWS-4 to contribute
to, so call
it $45,000. But that's only if someone else can start at
about the same
time. Right now the effort is going along slowly as purely volunteer.So the answer to 'when can we expect GML 3 in GeoServer?' is
really it
depends on when the right resources emerge, at the right
time. Fabio,
if you guys could help out, in programmers or funding, let me know.
TOPP (my organization, and the maintainer and one of the drivers of
geoserver) just can't take the risk to do GML 3 on our own. But if
others are able to contribute we can help out. Though the reality of
the situation is that someone will likely have to come up
with money to
pay refractions so that uDig can contribute and will
successfully migrate.Note that if we do get this on, it should be as good if not
better than
just about anything out there. It will have the ability to
go from an
arbitrary sql statement to a known application schema, and to perform
quite well, passing filters back to the database. There are mostly
working implementations on the complex_features branch. We
just need to
get them on trunk as _the_ implementation, which just needs a
number of
people at once. If we had 5-6 people working for 2-3 weeks we could
probably pull it off pretty easily.best regards,
Chris
