<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">That's not true. GeoMoose supports editing via WFS-T, it does not dictate the source of the WFS-T. The provider of the WFS-T service
dictates the underlying data source. For GeoServer, there are a litany of database to which it is perfectly happy to connect. I specifically said *databases* because editing a file is really not a good idea. There exist a few reasons for this but the most
important is probably dealing with concurrency. I tend to use GeoServer for WFS-T testing and implementation because it's really damn easy. (Download, create start up script, win.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">Files, natively, don't have a good way of handling what happens when two users do something to the file at the same time. If both you
and I both changed the shape of a polygon, or a label, or other attribute, at the same time, there's no good way for a file to resolve these changes. A server might be able to do some good work to make this type of operation work but I'd highly suggest AVOIDING
using a multi-user file-based system. The generally accepted method is to make something similar to a PostGIS database and offer exports to Shapefiles.
