RE: [Geoserver-devel] Basic WFS or Transaction WFS

[Chris H. <ch...@op...>]

Yes, we are definitely working on implementing full locking, as
Transactions need locking to be secure.  We're going to try to get that in
the release following the april 11th release.  It might not be super
efficient at first, but we do want to get fully spec compliant soon.

Good luck with the installs,

Chris
