Have you considered WFS transaction and versioning over WFS Simple? http://www.ogcnetwork.net/wfssimple WFS Simple is designed to have a lot more appeal to casual implementors. OpenStreetmap.org is one project that's been WFS-T curious for awhile but found the spec overhead combined with the lack of versioning / history support, unappealing. But they would benefit hugely from being able to plug into more generic drawing client support than their current interface allows ( http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/REST ) While the apogee for a specification is inclusion in geoserver or mapserver, it would be great if what came out of the geoserver WFS-TV efforts *was* appealing to and implementable by a ton of people... cheers, jo ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
