Re: [Geotools-devel] feature validation "switch"

[Justin D. <jde...@op...>]

I thought I made myself pretty clear on the issue. I gave my two cents on
the issue and more or less left it up to Andrea and the app-schema folks to
work out the details. In the end I agreed with Andreas reasoning for not
validating by default.

My only concern is that this work be done on trunk, and not on 2.0.x. I sort
of thought that certainly this type of work would only be done on trunk but
given recent commits i have seen I am not so sure.
