Yeah, I can imagine you suggested this move because it was needed. It seems that we need to define a standard format for all modules, which we would present in: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/Creating+your+own+Module http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/5.3+Module+Directory+Structure http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/Supporting+your+module and in the unsupported/example module http://svn.geotools.org/trunk/modules/unsupported/example/ We need to agree on a layout of files. For isogeom, I've settled on: LGPL --- version 2.1 (i.e. a copy of each license applicable) LICENSE --- the actual text of the terms (example contents below) pom.xml README --- module info review.txt src/ TODO --- plans for the future Martin suggests moving the review.txt into a site/ folder somewhere (see his email for details). Can we come up with a standard layout for these core files? --adrian LICENSE (needs to be tweaked, e.g. the GeoTools [sic] line, the version number to 2.1 only, but gives the idea) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The files in this software library package are part of Geotools, an open source Java GIS toolkit a free software effort of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo).
