add a function to the DescribeSchema command which lets someone specify feature
class names they are interested in. This can then be treated as a hint by the
providers which need that and other providers can ignore it and return the full

returned schema. This way there would be no work required of provides that
don't need it, and there are no new commands or capabilities to add.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

implement new commands, or having client code have two code paths everywhere it
deals with getting a schema. However, I do not know enough about the RDBMS
providers to be sure if caching the schema is not possible in their case. Or
are we talking about the case where getting the schema even once, to cache it,
is too expensive (like if there are 1 million classes in Oracle)?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>RFC 23 (<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc23">http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc23</a>)
has been updated and re-posted for review. In particular, the
previously proposed changes to DescribeSchema have been dropped, and replaced
with a new DescribeClasses command. Also the API command names for
enumerating schemas and classes have been updated to GetSchemaNames and
GetClassNames.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Please review the new proposal and reply to this list by
July 23. <o:p></o:p></p>
