Montreal Code Sprint 2011 : The Rendez-vous of the Tribes

Sending out a clear message that we'd like to see members of all OSGeo tribes (C/C++, Java, JavaScript, C#, etc.) join forces for the advancement of OSGeo technologies. Last year's sprint in NYC helped foster synergies between the tribes and we want this to continue even stronger.

MapServer

  • 6.0 Release work (documentation, polishing and bug fixes)
  • SVG Symbols (assefa, zak, thomas)
  • rendering features with offset + leader (assefa, zak, thomas)
  • Outputformat refactoring (don't create and initialize all default outputformats at each request) (thomas)
  • Text rendering => always use labelpathobj (thomas)
  • rasterBufferObj: premultiplied or not? (thomas, frankw)
  • INSPIRE View Services support for WMS (TomK, assefa, etc.)
  • Ruby/SWIG MapScript (JimK)
  • layer level GEOMTRANSFORM (Steve)
  • use case snippets (see OpenLayers as an example) (Steve)
  • profiling 6.0 ahead of benchmarking exercise (need feedback from Jeff/Daniel on where we sucked)

PostGIS

  • 3D index issues outline support whether we'll have one or 2 types of parallel indices (prefer one type even if it means putting off til 2.1)
  • 9.1 KNN GIST are we going to do or punt to 2.1
  • Left over issues with EMPTY and new more ISO compliant WKT display of geometries
  • Make geometry_columns a view rather than table - harmonize legacy with new to cause least pain
  • Possibility of preliminary X3D support in 2.0 instead of 2.1 (Olivier) ( http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/854 )
  • 3D topological serialization for PolyhedralSurface and TIN (Olivier)
  • shp2pgsql (-gui)/pgsql2shp - (Jeff Adams)
   while you are at it would be really nice to investigate http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/808 
    got broken in 2.0 and a real show-stopper for PostGIS 2.0 release
 Also add more regression tests for shp2pgsql,pgsql2shp
  • Incubation issues -- not fun stuff but needs to be addressed, get list of all contributors, decide if each file will have blanket copyright with reference to contributor file, what to do with files that have no copyright markings

PostGIS raster

  • Ticket fixes Pierre: (792 & 762), 825, 633, 766, 651, 490,
