Hi,

I have just set up geoserver and learned about adding shapefiles using 
the webinterface. Now I started finding out how to do this for a lot of 
shapefile. I read about the rest api and started using it with curl.
I am now able to upload new shapefiles. I also found out how to update 
the <srs> tag in the feature.xml using the rest api.

This is all working well, but I have still some problems:

1. using the rest api with curl is slow, the response takes about 1-2 
seconds, far to slow for my batch operations
2. I am still not able to do everything I want, I also need to:
   - change the values in the lat/lon bounding box
   - publish the feature

So I am considering updating the data structure using my own program. I 
would have to copy the files, and create the xml files. This would be no 
problem but I need to know if this is posible at all. Would I be able to 
automate the process of adding shapefiles, filling in all the right 
metadata, and have geoserver publish/enable the feature?

Hopefully you are willing to share your thoughts with me and give me 
some pointers as how to proceed.

Thanks a lot,
Fernando Asimov
