Backporting JTS upgrade
Started a thread on the geotools-devel list.
-
Proposed to do the upgrade to the stable branch as well, and it has been
a month too.
-
Jody notes that the JTS change is mostly additive so this should be a
safe change :)
Opinions?

Other stuff to look forward to, but need code changes in master:

No takers here. Let’s ask on the list about it.

Jody: Going to focus on the upcoming RC :)
GeoPackage status update
Andrea is working on testbed 17:
-
Large geopackage: generation, reading, etc…
-
Metadata
-
Styles: order, stylesheets and the like
-
Performance discussion relative to PostGIS
-
Hard to scale creating the index
-
Overview table, similar to a pre-generalized datastore ...
Implementation
-
SPI: GeoPackage extension
-
Schema extension to define extra information from
-
Metadata extension
-
GeoServer community module contains all the other stuff
-
Unofficial stuff from the test pilot
-
Semantic annotations associate styles and metadata with tables
Sidebar: Community module interest:

Core provides geopackage datastore
-
Community module used for
-
WPS (“good” with own xml file)
-
WFS (okay similar to shapefile, only features, if you export large
amount you http timeout)
-
WMS (poor implementation, of many levels of pre-rendered imagery)
