[geomoose-psc] Trac notifications?

+1 as well, but I don’t think it will happen without some significant funding.

I think python (or ruby or potentially node.js) would be much better.  But also that we should decouple them a bit from the JS and from MapServer rather than make a direct port.

For instance, I'd like GeoMoose to be able to work against GeoServer or anything that produces valid WMS/WFS-T.  I think this means moving some more from the services into JS and making the remaining of the services more data source agnostic.

Sounds like we need some funding to try to port the PHP services to Python ☺

The big problem with more than one GeoMoose version at a time is mod_php isn't very flexible.

GeoMoose JavaScript has no problem with multiple versions.

The problem is the PHP code is coupled to the JS version and is also coupled to the MapServer version.  We tend to target the latest MapServer available in MS4W to make life easy for our windows running users.

So we end up needing multiple MapServer versions to run multiple GeoMoose versions  (which is easy enough for Perl/python/ruby MapScript and also easy enough if we would decouple the (PHP) services from the JS code similar to how things originally worked at the city) but with PHP where everything essentially gets linked into Apache at runtime it makes life very difficult.

All,

I have an interest in working on the "Demo" side of things, but I would prefer to work in a separate container of sorts, maybe more of a sandbox environment to be able to try different things, and to also possibly leave them in place between versions, at least for a couple of versions out.  I really like the sandbox approach used by OpenLayers for demos of particular capabilities.  Using this sort of model, it might be nice to see demos from more than one organization for different types of things over the long run.

The current demo looks to be tightly integrated with the GeoMoose website on the whole, and based on the distribution methods that are needed, this is probably a good thing.

So the question is, is there room for an extended set of demos, possibly housed somewhere besides the GeoMoose web site and tied in as a linked resource? This may be something that has some slight dependency on the future abstraction of some of the GeoMoose tools as well, at least in order for the idea to take off quicker.
