> Dear list,
> it is a pleasure to announce the release of GeoShield (version 0.2.1).
>
> GeoShield is a project born to offer a centralized way to define  
> security access-control to geo-services.
> It acts like a proxy, intercepting all the communications between  
> clients and OGC compliant services (WMS, WFS, and in future WPS, SOS).
> GeoShield is able to manage users and groups, it handles  
> authentication and privileges settings among groups and registered  
> services. It is capable to analyse requests applying the filters set  
> to the user and manipulating the response.
> It is a server side security software to secure OGC services.
>
> The interested people can find the source code and a web archive  
> package (.war) ready for Tomcat:
