[OSGeo-Discuss] Open Location Services

[Jody Garnett]

Indeed I talked to LISAsoft a couple years ago about adding OpenLS to  
GeoTools; we got stuck on GeoAPI interfaces as I remember. Cameron if  
LISAsoft is still interested we have reduced the amount of effort  
required to take part in GeoTools with a policy change introducing  
"unsupported" modules.

With respect to sponsoring packaging costs, for inclusion as a  
supported module, the library asks for documentation, (c) assignment  
to osgeo, a set level of test case coverage and so on.
