Hi,

I noticed that WFS plugin is missing from the plugin page at
openjump.org.  However, I think it is worth mentioning there, perhaps
with a short description. The following is too long for that page but
perhaps it could be used for advertising in some other place.

"OpenJUMP WFSPlugin is WFS v. 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 client.  It supports
filtering features from the remote WFS server by attributes and spatial
operations based on a geometry that is selected in JUMP map window.
Logical operators =, <, >, <=, >=, <>, LIKE and NOT LIKE are supported
for attribute filtering. Supported spatial operators are Intersects,
Within, Dwithin, Contains, Touches, Crosses, Overlaps, Equals and
Disjoint.  In addition, extents of the JUMP map window can be captured
and used as bounding box in WFS request.

WFS server response for getCapabilities and describeFeatureType requests
can be directed into text window and stored on disk if desired.  In a
similar way the http POST getFeature request that WFSPlugin creates can
be checked and manually edited in a text window before it is sent to the
WFS server. If these debugging options are not adequate the WFS plugin
can also be used as a standalone Java application. In this mode the GML
returned by WFS server is not parsed but it is just captured and showed
in text window or stored on disk.

Plugin was developed and tested against GeoServer 1.5.0 (supporting only
WFS 1.0.0) and it works pretty well with all demonstration feature types
shipped with GeoServer installation package.

Known issues:
- The parser still fails with some feature types especially if they have
attributes of type DOUBLE or DATE/TIME.
- Plugin was tested briefly with MapServer 4.8 WFS server.  Basically
the plugin worked with MapServer, but there were some problems for
example in building the list of available attributes."
