Now that's great news :-) Is it pure java or does it use the GRASSlib? (if GRASSlib is still around, was just being created when I left GRASS). >> Point them to the GRASS location and boom, serve all your >> data live on the web.

It may not be impossible. It's just that when you ate geotools and geoserver all the week you may not be eager to implement something that big on the weekend :-) It's about keeping a balance between work and private life, especially when, like me, you are working at home anyways. Well, calling it work seems strange since I enjoy it so much, but that's the very reason one has to be cautious and not let it eat all the non sleeping hours right away.
