No technical feedback for the > moment. I could make things more explicit on the main proposal page, but each section contains links to more detailed information, including the actual "patch" to be seen inline. Namely: <http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+69+-+API+Proposal> As it's all about new stuff, when it comes strictly to the API proposal, I judged it'd be convenient to have the whole proposal to be seed inline. Yet there's also a link to the github branch where the whole work lives, both API proposal, code migration for exemplary use cases, and alternative jdbc backend: <https://github.com/groldan/geoserver/tree/GSIP69>
That said I'm working on updating that branch with sensible, step by step squashed commits, one per each of the above mentioned additions. So if you can go ahead and give some feedback based on what's on those pages. Otherwise I'll let the list know when I've the squashed commits into the before mentioned branch so each change can easily be seen as an actual patch. WRT 2.2.x or not, my intention is to just state what the ideal would be for us given the current situation, stressing to the limits that it is fine for us if that is found unacceptable by the PSC.
