[udig-devel] Re: Context Document

[Jody Garnett <jgarnett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Repost now that we have a list ...

So what else would we need to add to our context document?

Their suggestions are:
- XIMA for persistence that supports annotations (I don't think I care)
- WFS query/filter expressions (I care)
- Service chaining (I care but it scares me)

On the bright side they expect a "WMS/WFS Context" to be the next
step.... Wish we were more in touch with the players on this one. I may
email the authors of this document to see if there is an email list we
can join.
