Interesting problem. The dispatcher now finds the service object first, and then reflectively finds the method to call on it. Since we cannot add methods to an object at runtime, do we have alternatives? Maybe mapping the wms/kml... url to a specific restlet would be enough? > So I for one, that happened to have to do one or another intervention in > the kml code base and still can't really say I _understand_ it, could at > least volunteer to try to make it its own module. Does that sound good? Would work for me. I'm still hoping to see someone pop up that says she/he's interesting in helping maintenance, but if nobody shows up, I guess we're not left with much of a choice Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
