[mapguide-internals] [mapguide-users] Adding a CoordinateSystem to MGE/MGOS

[Maksim Sestic]

Jason, is there some sort of "global" OSGeo roadmap on active projects and
code being shared among them? Like - what project depends on other projects'
deadlines, common cores (i.e. FDO in MG), etc. I guess there's a geospatial
product manager somewhere at Autodesk who actively tracks this :-) Otherwise
there will be lots of inner branching and wheel reinventing, but the purpose
stays the same.

Frankly, lack of CRS support in FDO is still mistery to me :-) MG should be
able to detect and reuse any managed feature store's CRS, where applicable
(if not explicitly overriden by MG at feature source level). This should
also solve WMS/WFS troubles on WGS84 reprojection parameters and envelope
definition.

If I understood "FDO Futures" right, there's a plan to gradually switch
general FDO architecture to client/server? 

Regards,
Maksim Sestic
