Hey all,
just an FYI I’ve all intents to send a proposal as an independent contractor, just waiting until next week once I’m more relieved from my current project, since it looks I’d need to gather some more insights on the current state of affairs and think of what a possible solution could be.
Cheers,
Gabriel.

Thank you both for your reply, Let me take those two emails as “expressing interest” so we should not cancel this activity. I will update the blog post to indicate “email geoserver-devel” if interested and we can extend the deadline until the end of next week. I would like to evaluate and select a proposal during our next geoserver meeting.
To answer Gabriel’s question there are three main approaches that have been discussed so far:
a) cite command line: The existing scripts made use of a the cite engine to run tests on the command line. It was tricky to run a GeoServer, wait for it to startup, and then perform the tests. These jobs are still on build.geoserver.org and can be used a a reference.
b) cite engine service: The new cite engine has a rest-api, so the testing script could use CURL commands to ask the engine to run the tests
c) cite engine docker: The cite engine is also distributed as a docker image, if that makes it easier to manage the rest-api approach
Any of those approaches can be viable, the challenge (after our last experience) is setting up something that can be maintained.

My co-workers have expressed interest in this activity, I will double check if GeoCat can also provide a response by mid-week.

Reminder we would really like proposals in this week, to allow some time to review and ask questions before Tuesday’s meeting.
