Hi Justin,

I already committed some patches to the WFS module, so step 1 is taken :). 
I 'll have a look at the link you provided me. Still some questions open, but i 
hope Gabriel can answer those.

Subject: Re: [Geotools-devel] WFS module back to supported

That is great news Roy. It is always nice when someone steps up and takes on an 
unsupported module.


I believe the official maintainer of the module is Gabriel. So he may want to 
weigh in. But usually it goes that someone contributes a few patches to a 
module, and once they have the trust of the existing maintainer they get commit 
rights in that module. An unsupported module I guess is a bit different since 
it does not by definition have an active maintainer.  


As for getting a module back to supported the criteria is more or less laid out 
here:


http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/Supporting+your+module  


But essentially it just needs some users, a minimum amount of test coverage and 
some documentation.

  List,

the thread 'How to create BBOX Filter with FilterFactory2' triggered me. I want 
to get the WFS module back to supported and TRY to support WFS 1.1.0. But i 
don't know where to start.... 
  What's the status now? 
What needs to be done?
Is there already somebody working on it?
Can we form up some group of people to get this done?

Roy
