Hey all, I missed last week's mail so I'll try to cover a couple of weeks' events in this email.
On the master branch, some minor bugs have been resolved: #952<http://dev.geonode.org/trac/ticket/952> preventing the keywords in GeoNode from propagating to GeoServer, and #940<http://dev.geonode.org/trac/ticket/940> which caused some i18n errors in IE. Matt Bertrand from WorldMap has been working to bring functionality into GeoNode which will allow uploaded data to be imported straight to PostGIS. The necessary improvements to gsconfig have already been reviewed and merged, and Matt is working on the changes to the GeoNode application. Gabriel Roldan from OpenGeo has been working on some changes to the way GeoServer integrates with Django, which promise great speed improvements for GeoServer operations such as map tile requests. A Continuous Integration<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_integration> server has been set up on OpenGeo hardware to automatically run GeoNode's test suite. Ariel Nuñez from the World Bank and Jeff Johnson from OpenGeo have been working on increasing the quality and quantity of tests in that suite. If you would like to see the test reports, they are publicly viewable at http://geonode-testing.dev.opengeo.org:8080/ . There are charts on the pages for the subprojects, varying a bit based on the nature of the subproject. For example, we don't have an automated test suite for the JavaScript components ("geonode-client") so there are no charts, but the "geonode-server" project has test and test coverage reports at http://geonode-testing.dev.opengeo.org:8080/job/geonode-server/ The upload patch submitted by Ariel Nuñez and Ole Nielsen is nearly ready for integration into the core geonode project - the issues raised in review have been addressed and we are just waiting to give the original authors a chance to provide feedback on those changes. The GeoNode Project Steering Committee has decided to make the next release of GeoNode 1.1 Beta (instead of 1.0.1), to allow us to start focussing on compatiblity with GeoServer 2.1 and taking advantage of some performance and stability improvements in that revision. There are more details at this previous post on this mailing list: http://librelist.com/browser//geonode/2011/5/5/geonode-stability-and-the-1-1-release-series/ Finally, OpenGeo will be providing some recommendations on setting up production GeoNode sites to reduce the stability problems users have been reporting. I hope that these will be available early next week. -- David Winslow OpenGeo - http://opengeo.org/
