Ciao Rich, JAI-Ext project has been created because: -1- JAI is actually abandoned -2- JAI Native source code is not available (things are more complicated but that is ok) -2- JAI has no support for no data
The plan as Andrea pointed out is to smoothly replace all the JAI operations in GeoTools/GeoServer with JAI-Ext version with support for no data. In the longer term we might want to replace JAI entirely but that's a longer term goal. Next week I will talk to the other interested people here at GeoSolutions and I'll try to share our plan for the switch. If you are able to provide any type of help (coding, testing, moral support :) ) that would be great. Regards, Simone Giannecchini == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
