I know. And that's why I like to use Acegi in std 3-tier Java apps. But the GeoServer is a little different, so there will be non-standard approach. > The issue touched upon at the bottom of the email is perhaps the most > important issue for your project to address, namely which target > platform does OSS GIS GeoServer plan on using.

Technically, the GeoServer is a Java-based web application based on servlets which can be deployed in any web application container (Tomcat, Jetty, Resin, etc.). I guess that's the answer for the "target platform" question. In fact the GeoServer is The Open Planning Project's project, but my company is considering whether to extend it with Acegi as auth* component. Thanks for your help!
