Yes, let's put it to a vote. From last week's IRC meeting, I believe I have a +1 from aaime and simboss, +0 from jdeolive.

The configuration is completely orthogonal to the org.geoserver.catalog classes, much as templates and permissions are. Decoration layouts are defined in XML files, which can be referenced by name in a format option as described in both the GSIP and the wiki page. These layouts are global; at present there is no association between layouts and any other configuration entity. Disabling the feature is as simple as neglecting to define any layout files. > > Can this be used to package up the "watermark" functionaltiy in a cleaner > form. The existing watermark configuration is already interpreted as an extra 'static image' decoration which is appended to each layout. -- David Winslow OpenGeo - http://opengeo.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
