[OpenLayers-Users] WMS-T support?

[Samuel Gilbert]

Hello,

The Canadian Weather Service is looking to make content available through 
WebMaps.  We already have content delivered through WMS with time extend 
support.  We are looking for a WebMap client library which supports WMS-T.

Searching through the last few years of the mailing list (Nabble archive 
search looks down), I found one occurrence :

http://dev.openlayers.org/sandbox/mpriour/temporal_map/openlayers/examples/time-
control.html

I also found ticket #1100 (http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/ticket/1100) that 
suggest to add a control to navigate the time dimension for layers.  The last 
change to that ticket was done 5 years ago.  It's set to be in the 3.0 
milestone.  I looked at the code on gitHub in the master branch, but I didn't 
find the control.

What is the current status of handling layers with a time extend in 
OpenLayers?  Is it going to be part of the 3.0 release?  If so, is their a 
rough idea of when version 3.0 will become available?

Best regards,

Samuel
