[Geoserver-users] Clarification on the Issues List Module

[Jody G. <jga...@re...>]

Very Nice Cory :-)

I am going to take a run at the page, based on the IRC discussion we 
need define this in a very specific manner.

How ever some quick answers:
- this is not a new service
- makes no use of feature model, or GML
- defines an API to access the same Issue Model used by uDig (based on 
the shared validation code with GeoServer Transactions)
- the API is made available to client code via Spring remoting
- the API is available to other geoserver modules via Spring
- the first implementation uses hibernate for persistence

I had not thought of story integrating this module with the default 
GeoServer install (as this is not the point).
The possibility of generating out a list of validation errors from 
transactions, or listing the validation errors present
in the dataset both sound good.

What I would like this module to do is get people comfortable working 
together, and explore using the GeoServer
module system as a platform. Doing this using a community module that is 
available for public review makes this process
easier.

I will be making plenty of commercial modules using GeoServer 1.4.0 as a 
base, since this is the smallest one of public utility we
can work on from the get go.
