Recent Pull requests
------------------------------

The following pull request have been merged, but may warrent further
discussion.

1) Constrast enhancement

Merged by Simone, some odd whitespace, still waiting on docs.

Action: Contact Simone with respect to docs (cut and paste from proposal :D
)

2) z-order

Review/merged went smoothly.

Docs showing up in both geotools and geoserver:

http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/styling/sld-extensions/z-order/example.html
- sld section includes css examples (huh)?

http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/library/render/style.html#featuretypestyle
- missing documentation on sort group

3) ResourceStore API Change

Niels had a busted test, fixed and merged to master (but may get some
feedback from Niels).

4)  Rewrite of ArcGIS compact cache code and support for ArcGIS 10.3
compact caches

- Merged after adjusting dependencies to reduce bloat.

5) Style generation

Merged without REST API (will have to be added later).

Beta Release
-------------------

Scheduled for this week (Friday). This is a beta release resulting in a
feature freezse.

The real question is which pull requests are going to make the cut.

1) Improvement to label cache from IGN. To be reviewed.
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/948

Sounds cool - is it an API change (if so priority).

2) New projection, Meteosat 2 one,
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/947/files

3) GeodeticCalculator rewrite on geographic lib:
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/945

4) Dasharry property expressions:
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/943 (not sure)
Jody should review, it is a priority due to api change.
Waiting on response to Andrea's review... whitespace / headers / docs.

5) Not a pull request yet, but expressions for inline content (not the
right way imho)
Andrea will provide feedback, looks like it may be more complicated that
needed.

6) WPS improvements in GeoServer pull requests. To be reviewed, sort of
stuck
- https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/1189 Option to disable
synchronous WPS
- https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/1188 Extra control over WPS
execution limits

These are waiting on feedback, may not make the cut if authors do not
respond.

7) jai-ext disabled by default (pr to be made)
jai-ext results in slow down so - disable by default. UI is already
available to enable/disable operation by operation (as needed for
deployment).
Will gradually improve performance before making this the default.

8) Separate panels for layer defaults and general caching options
Jody following up with Kevin.

9) Allow ExternalGraphic image to be used for GetCapabilities and
GetLegendGraphics
Kevin will review :P

Action: Jody will send email about the older pull requests (WPS Process
Refactoring)

Transformations in CSS
--------------------------------

Asked feedback to add support to rendering transformation of CSS.

This is a balance between passing in parameters (where name matters), and
representing as functions (where position matters).

Jody likes example (c) - it is nested but communicates the names:

ras:Contour(data(), levels(1100, 1200, 1300, 1400))) {
  stroke: black;
}
