This, in my understanding, is one of the goals of the resource/publishing split. I hope one day that we can bind (for example) each workspace to a different WFS service URL in the same GeoServer instance, rather than just have workspace = namespace as we have now. To meet the WFS spec, qnames would have to be unique within each WFS, but not necessarily within the GeoServer instance. Workspaces could be used to deliver the same feature type name, encoded according to different profiles, or backed by different data. Perhaps profile should not be a container (like workspace), but a property set on each feature type? -- Ben Caradoc-Davies <ben.caradoc-dav...@csiro.au> Software Engineer, CSIRO Exploration and Mining Australian Resources Research Centre 26 Dick Perry Ave, Kensington WA 6151, Australia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Geoserver-devel mailing list Geoserver-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-devel
