<P><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We use Geoserver/Geotools together with our own application. Our own application is heavily using Hibernate. For this reason we would like to use the Hibernate DataStore to add to Geotools in order to serve Geoserver. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Why did you decide to abondon Hibernate DataStore? Was this because you do not use Geotools anymore? Any information is welcome to us, we are in the starting phase of the project. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">Hi,<BR>
<BR>
I'm working on something along those lines: Hibernate Spatial. It's <BR>
an extension on Hibernate so that it can work with JTS Geometry <BR>
classes (which is the geometry used in GeoTools feature model).<BR>
<BR>
Here is the project page: </FONT><A HREF="http://www.cadrie.com/projects/majas"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">http://www.cadrie.com/projects/majas</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">-<BR>
hibernate/hibernate-spatial/introduction.html<BR>
<BR>
NOTE: in the next couple of weeks the project will be moved to a new <BR>
home (</FONT><A HREF="http://www.hibernatespatial.org/"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">http://www.hibernatespatial.org/</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">)<BR>
<BR>
Hibernate Spatial was developed in part during the MAJAS project. <BR>
There we worked for while on a Geotools datastore that used the <BR>
Hibernate Spatial as backend. This code can still be found on </FONT><A HREF="https://"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">https://</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New"><BR>
</FONT><A HREF="file://www.cadrie.com/svn/majas/trunk/majas-hibernate-datastore/"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">www.cadrie.com/svn/majas/trunk/majas-hibernate-datastore/</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Courier New">. I do not <BR>
know how useful this code is at present. We abandoned development of <BR>
the Hibernate DataStore because working directly with Hibernate <BR>
Spatial was easier for us. If you're interested in this, I'll try to <BR>
revive development.<BR>
<BR>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We are working for Fao on a open source project called Fenix (just began). </FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We need or need to develop a Geotools Datastore for Hibernate mapping to PostGis. </FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Is this already done or are there any examples? </FONT>
