Hi all,

I'd like to introduce this project to all developers. Some might know about
it already from a couple PSC meetings ago
https://github.com/camptocamp/geoserver-microservices.

First and foremost, let me note that I've taken the liberty to use, at
least for the time being, the org.geoserver.cloud namespace, name the
project "Cloud Native GeoServer", and use directly other material from
GeoServer - like the LICENSE.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, and CONTRIBUTING.md
files - because both Camptocamp and the customer funding it intend to
donate it in its entirety to the GeoServer community. So, following further
discussion, may it not be acceptable to be somehow incorporated to
GeoServer's code-base, I'll take care of remedying that.

In terms of donating the code, my preference would be for it to become a
sibling project inside GeoServer's github organization, being in nature a
separate project that "uses" GeoServer components, and moving any module
that extends GeoServer's capabilities, as community modules, so they can
also be used in its traditional form.

Secondly, let me encourage any interested party in participating by asking
questions, trying it out, submitting bug reports, providing patches of
course, etc. Read the project's README, and let me know if there's anything
to clear up.

I haven't set up a mailing list or other sort of discussion forum other
than the github issues itself. May this project become part of the
GeoServer community, we could decide together the best course of action.

Needless to say that this is very much work in progress, I'm glad and
confident to send this email having it proved a feasible approach to build
a microservices-architecture incarnation of our beloved GeoServer.

Best regards,
--
