We have started working on a new project called GeoPrisma that we plan on
releasing under an open source license in the coming weeks (quite likely
at FOSS4G, but that remains to be confirmed), and we would like to host
SVN, Trac and Lists for this project at OSGeo. As per SAC policy, we would
need one of the admins to volunteer to do the setup for us.
GeoPrisma is an access control layer that sits between client Web Mapping
applications based on MapFish/GeoExt/OpenLayers and standard services
running on the server (WMS, WFS, FeatureServer, TileCache, etc). The
actual implementation is a proxy server that validates all service
requests against an Access Control List, and also builds/adapts the user
interface to match the privileges of the user currently viewing the
application. The project is currently developed in collaboration between
Mapgears, Boreal-IS and Nippour Geomatik and has been deployed at several
client sites already.
Since the project provides the glue for access control between several
OSGeo components, we believe it is a good fit to be hosted at OSGeo, and
we also plan on applying for incubation once the project has taken off and
gained some momentum.
There is no public site for the project yet (we use geoprisma.org for
development internally at the moment), but a demo and more information is
available at http://dev4g.mapgears.com/geoprisma/demo/
