Hi Robert,
I was having a look at the pull request, I think it looks good, but there
are couple of things I've noticed that have
no precedent in previous contributions, that might need a bit of discussion:
* the classes are all inside a com.moesol.geoserver root package, whilst
all of the GeoServer code is either in org.geoserver,
  or in the legacy org.vfny.geoserver
* the headers assign the copyright to your company, this is also something
new, mostly because in case you want the module
  to become part of GeoServer you have to assign the copyright to OpenPlans
instead.
  Now... I _believe_ we can have both copyright headers in place (the
assignement does not strip you of your rights, just
  gives them same to OpenPlans), but I'm no lawyer. Jody has been going
through an extensive IP review with IBM lately
  for GeoTools/uDig, maybe he can comment on this?

Cheers
Andrea
