I would prefer not if all this will be is another layer of abstraction on top of geoapi. In my opinion things are already as abstract enough and it makes it hard to follow. Now I will fully admit when it comes to referencing systems i am a layman to be sure, but I understand the basics, so I don't think it is unreasonable to ask for a library/api that i can use that is *simple* and keeps abstractions to a minimum.
I also think that perhaps depending on geoapi is a bit of an issue since its a large number of interfaces, many of which have nothing to do with referencing. A question for Martin: Are there any plans to make GeoAPI more modular in nature, so that people can pick and choose from parts of the interfaces they wish to use? -Justin Martin Desruisseaux wrote: > Sunburned Surveyor a écrit : >> If we have some consensus that this is a good idea could we move >> forward with a GeoTools module to contain the interface? > > I'm neutral on this one.
