[OSGeo-Discuss] 52North Security API 2.0.2 available

[Rene A Enguehard]

Looks really nice. This, I think, answers a question we were asked 
yesterday by Sossio D'Isa about security using OS geospatial products. 
I'll probably end up using this in the near future. However, am I the 
only one that cringed at the sight of GeoRM? Anything associated with 
DRM immediately causes a knee-jerk reaction in me. Perhaps not the best 
name for what looks to be a good product. :)
