Hi,
the OSGEO sprint is getting close, I believe we need to push
out an RC1 of GeoServer and of GeoTools too.

Let me elaborate.

GeoServer wise, in Bolsena we'll need to work on a new UI,
and we cannot do that on the current trunk.
I see a few options here:
* make an RC1 and branch off trunk to 1.7.x
* vote an exception to the procedure, and branch without
   releasing
* work on the new UI on a separate branch that will
   eventually become trunk.

On the gt2 side, we have the SE 1.1 proposal in preparation
that will change a whole lot of files, and potentially
involve various changes in the SLD parsers, producers and
the rendering subsystem in general, making the rendering
subsystem unstable for some time:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Upgrading+styles

Again, it would be nice to ask GeoTools to branch off
before that change occurs, so that we have time to
absorb the change and leverage the new options that
SE 1.1 offers compared to SLD 1.0. This, by gt2 procedures,
requires the release of an RC1 again.
And we also need the feature speedup patches, either
that, or we work on peformance tuning after RC1 is release.

Opinions?
Cheers
Andrea
