[OSGeo-Discuss] 52N WPS 2.0-RC6 available

[Ann Hitchcock]

Dear OSGeo List, 

The 52°North Geoprocessing Community released a new Web Processing Service
version. The WPS 2.0-RC6 contains the following new features:

*	an out-of-the-Box GRASS connector (no programming needed). A
tutorial [1] provides instructions on how to connect GRASS with the WPS. A
list of processes [2] are also available. 
*	a new easy-to-use WebAdmin interface for WPS configuration. It is no
longer necessary to manually change the XML files and low level code.
*	a new Windows Installer
*	improved KML Reader and Writers
*	several smaller bug fixes.

The 52N WPS enables standardized web-based geodata processing in distributed
architectures. It features a pluggable architecture for processes and data
encodings. The implementation is based on the current OpenGIS specification:
05-007r7. For a full description of the features, please look here:
