Hi,
I was looking into this geoserver ticket:

https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-4923

The reported correctly traces it to the logic used to decide is a rule is
in scale range, and indeed the
specification says:

"The MinScaleDenominator and MaxScaleDenominator elements, as their names
suggest, are simply the minimum and maximum ranges of scale (denominators)
of maps
for which a rule should apply. The minimum scale is inclusive and the
maximum scale is
exclusive"

I checked if StreamingRenderer does the same, and indeed, it does. Went
back with svn to
the initial commit of "LiteRenderer" by yours truly in 2003 (I cannot find
an older renderer package
in there, we are talking about the original 2.0.x branch!) and the logic
with tolerance was already there.

Now... I can understand the tolerance, clients and servers are almost never
computing
the value with the exact same precision (think float vs double, or just
slight variations in the expression
setup), but indeed hitting a threshold scale exactly makes both rules to
trigger...

Soo... possible approaches:

   - Just remove the tolerances altoghether. Simple,clean, we'll get some
   users complaining that their client is stating a scale at which rules
   should trigger, and they don't
   - Remove it only from max scale denominator check? It's still possible
   to make the two rules trigger but getting at a value between target and
   "scale - tolerance"
   - Add some sophisticated logic that favours the min rules in case we
   have both? (but not fully sure how to write it)

More ideas? Suggestions? Any takers?

Cheers
Andrea
