[Geotools-devel] Proposal: renderer extension module

[Luca M. <luc...@gm...>]

Folks,

following a suggestion of Andrea Aime, I have written some code to draw shapes out 
of WKT text (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-3058).

This feature lets a user specify simple shapes directly in SLD (or in a dedicated 
properties file) without the need to code its Markfactory subclass in Java.

In addition to this, I would like to include a class containing shapes used in 
weather maps, this time drawn using Java code (not much in common with WKT shapes, 
but a wider selection of shapes may be useful).

For the time being, I titled this module "renderer extension"... but I am open to 
suggestions.

Of course, I am willing to become the maintainer of such module.

What do you think ?

Regards,
