Hi all,

I would like to call for a vote on GSIP 34:

http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+34+-+New+data+directory+structure+for+2.x

Most feedback as been incorporated but the proposal of adding the idea 
of maps into the picture has not been incorporated for now. The reasons 
why being:

1) It increases scope in the short term without a lot of gain. Since the 
the upgrade to including maps into the picture is strictly additive to 
the data directory structure, it won't be an issue to add it later. 
Implementing maps in the short term, even just creating the idea of a 
default map is not trivial, and adds a pretty big hurdle.

2) Andrea pointed out that the data publishing split with regard to maps 
has not totally been fleshed out at this point. And indeed there is some 
thoughts about using a thread local view of the catalog as an 
alternative. So adding in maps to the structure now could indeed be a 
crutch come later.

So that is the rationale for leaving it out of the picture for now. 
Those who stand by the feedback still can vote -1.

So with that said, let the voting begin.

-Justin
