[udig-devel] Complex features from TOPP and the FGDC

[Chris Holmes <cholmes@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So we got some great news today, our application for an FGDC CAP grant 
was accepted.  This will enable us to work on the complex feature model 
for GeoTools, as well as a WFS 1.1 datastore.  And then integrating all 
this in to uDig, and helping out to make it even more user friendly.

Details of the award are at: 
http://www.fgdc.gov/grants/2007CAP/Category2/07HQAG-NY

Our plan is to get all the complex feature work firmly on trunk.  There 
are a few contingency plans if we can't quite do it all the way, but we 
are scheduling a good bit of time to make it happen, so should at least 
make some solid progress.  We can likely delay starting a bit if others 
have potential for getting funded, as we very much want to collaborate 
on this.  If not we'll give it our best shot.
