Hi,
Well, we do have a "lighter" solution ;)

On client side, it is based on a Java applet able to display Mapserver
data AND vector data to edit.
On server side, it is base on a Java Application (war) using Geotools.
A configuration file (lively editable) declares the geoserver layers
to edit (so a postgis layer, for instance) and (very) simple object
representation (line, filling, symbols).

Vector objects can be edited, with snapping options. Some client tools
allow to perform more complex editing operation:
polygon fusion, intersection, difference, hole completion, hole creation, etc.

To deploy the solution:
1°) On the server: a servlet container (jetty, tomcat...) where the war is put
2°) Configuration to declare the layer(s) to edit
3°) On the client side: a webpage declaring the edition applet and
biding it to the server

If you're interested, please let me know.
Nicolas
