So far I have not met a great deal of direction on the production of GeoTools content (but I had a good time being confused).
So we may as well just start - from what I can figure out the following would be useful: Developer Spotlights - OSGeo is doing them already with some success, not sure how we sign up but I would love hear what Gabriel has been up to :-) Flash - visual walk through w/ commentary on any of our demos. ie from maven.pom to eclipse to run Powerpoint - architecture or design material showing how the library fits in the middle - goal is to allow budding projects to steal good looking pictures that happen to have geotools in them PDF - White Papers - short technical papers, buzz word happy to show up in search results - get your name out there and take geotools along as your example Please note that this is more of an opportunity for those seeking fame / glory / or biz contacts. In terms of the library we simply need user documentation. As a community we could hope to gather a few more users, and at best some developer interest based on white papers. Thought: if we are moving to pdf files generated from DocBook for user documentation (rather then free form wiki), perhaps allowing people a descriptions of themselves and contact information would be a nice way to motivate content creation.
