Hello Chris
Thanks for the feedback :-)
Yes it is our intend to bring large parts of Constellation to Apache
SIS. For now we are focussing on porting Geotk, which is the engine
behind Constellation. SIS and Geotk do not have lot of GUI components
(except Swing), which make difficult to evaluate the progress. But they
contain most of the Java code (Constellation itself has more Javascript
than Java). The sis-referencing module in progress right now is one of
the largest modules and a key component of this stack.
SIS already has an "application/sis-webapp" module, which is a little
bit orphan for now. My hope is to use that module as a home for an
Apache application derived from Constellation, if peoples agree.
Before we can start porting useful parts of Constellation, the modules
that we need to complete in SIS are:
* sis-referencing (I think I'm 80% done)
* sis-coverage (for rasters)
* sis-storage (with 2 or 3 file formats)
* sis-renderer
There is much more modules to port to SIS, but once we have the above 4
we have enough stuff for building interesting GUI in SIS.
