Sacha, I have been unable to keep up with all of the great work that you and Michael Michaud have been doing on OpenJUMP during the last couple of weeks. :]
I think we would definitely be interested in having the ability to render WMS layers as from SVG instead of as an image in OpenJUMP. However, I think we might benefit from the creation of an "unstable" or development branch in the OpenJUMP CVS were we can commit these rather rapid changes. Stefan and I discussed this a little bit before, but never moved on it. I suppose we can accept all changes as long as they don't break the nightly build, but it might be nice to provide a home for some of these new features while we decide if we really want them in the stable version of OpenJUMP and determine what final form they will take. I'd like to know what Stefan thinks about this. I will go with whatever he thinks would be best in this regard. The Sunburned Surveyor On 5/28/07, Sascha L.
