Nope, pretty much spread out across the globe from Vancouver to Sydney

Justin,
Yes, I am doing that now...kinda have to just to fill out values so I
can POST and GET and make sense of the data.It's very hard to traverse a DOM when you don't know what the DOM even
looks like....I will send it to you for review before I start to use it in my
application.How long will you be available today?
Thanks!
Ronak

Subject: Re: [Geoserver-users] REST Configuration APIWell... xstream is nice and simple. You do not need to define a schema
or antyhing to serialize and deserialize objects. We also had a bunch
of
a xstream based stuff around for serializing the exact same objects,
so
it made sense to reuse it.
Part of my hesitation of publishing a schema at this point is that
this
api is very new, and will undoubtedly change. But I realize this makes
it hard for the client since there is no great way to figure out what
a
legal representation is.
Anyways, if you do reverse engineer a schema and would be willing to share it I would be happy to review it, and incorporate it into the
api.

In the meantime, I'll have to improvise and make up the schema on my

based on the data I see in the examples on your site.
Why did your team decide to use XStream rather than the popular JAXB
or
XMLBeans Java <-> XML binding APIs?

Hi,
I am exploring the new REST Configuration API and I was curious
about
the XML datatype.
Do you provide an XSD schema that lists the type of data structures
that
would be returned from geoserver?
Unfortunately no, not yet. The library we use (XStream) does not
provide
any facility for generating an XML schema, nor should it really. So
one
thing I was was thinking of was coming up with one manually, but something i have not got around with.
This would work out well with a JAXB or XMLBeans.
Another thing I would like to do is publish a java based client api. Actually there is a summer of code project for this. That way client code would really have to worry about what the exact XML
representation
looks like.
Thanks!!
