Thanks guys, great to hear this is still on the table. I took the liberty
of preparing two branches that implement the move. I did it in a way that
preserves all of the history of the ysld module from it’s old repository.
Here is the branch for that.
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/compare/master...jdeolive:ysld?expand=1
And then the change removing it from the old repo:
https://github.com/boundlessgeo/geoserver-exts/compare/master...jdeolive:ysld-geotools?expand=1
Just say the word and I’ll submit these as pull requests.
And yeah, definitely willing to share module maintainership on this one,
and I’ll be happy to port over docs.
