Hi Andrea,

Thanks for that info!

So, to make this, I'm trying to implement a WPS that receives the layer
name, the output format and the username that is requesting the featuretype
description.

The process is checking permissions accessing user info at database
(configured as JDBC at Geoserver) and layers.properties file. It looks like
this will solve this situation.

(Actually, we are using WPS for many other things than geometric/geographic
processes)

Regards,



Rodrigo C. Antonialli
