Hi Ben: Good thing to plan now - one thing that has been sad for me is that we just have one day of code sprint (I was unable to offer up lisasoft offices over the weekend due to liability insurance). Do you think we can hunt down another source of free internet?
- I would love a documentation party; transfer the good parts of the user guide into sphinx for example. - A lot of my earlier ideas for geotools have already happened (jdbc- ng went supported, managed to switch udig over to jdbc-ng; etc...). - that spike/geometry work on java-collab looks to be "moving" but a good cross project sprint on it would not go amiss - cut a geotools 3.0 and start stripping out legacy api Cheers, Jody On 19/08/2009, at 5:36 PM, Ben Caradoc-Davies wrote: > FOSS4G GeoTools/GeoServer attendees, > > I would like to draw your attention to the FOSS4G Code Sprint: > http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_2009_Code_Sprint > > I plan to attend the sprint. > - Who else will be attending? > - Do we have any proposals?
