Hi Andrea,

I think you misinterpreted my comments :). I was not saying that we should not ship a UI in favor of a REST api, I was simply saying that with a good REST api, the UI becomes less of a necessity.

I understood that. I'm just thinking the UI as a necessity and the
REST api as a nice to have (in my mind the first is what makes you
want to try out GeoServer, whilst the latter is something needed
for advanced usage only).


Sorry, I missed this before I wrote my email. From my perspective a REST configuration API is just about required. It's great for advanced users, and is great for javascript hooks to experiment with other UIs, as well as to script configuration from other languages. To be a modern internet application I'd say it's just about required. I'd be open to pushing on it just after we finish the UI up, or to do it in conjunction, but it's not something I want to wait much longer on. And we have been making good progress on it already.

best regards,

Chris
