XLink is part of GML, but I've never seen a WFS return GML that links to other resources. Does anybody use GML like this, and what client would they use?

The growing consensus is that map image and feature services can be (and should be) done RESTfully. Is there any aspect of web GIS that cannot? Geo-processing, perhaps? [more ...]

Threshold bug: Fixed. 1.9-rc1,2 released, and a user even confirmed that it fixed his threshold problem (yay)! This will probably be the last 1.9 release, and includes significantly improved error reporting. Refactor for drop in Layers: done, in the ‘refactor’ branch. I think I’ve maintained backwards compatibility at the ‘using a config file’ level, even, [...]

I'm throwing a party this weekend featuring my most ambitious ever grill-roasting enterprise: whole leg of pig with citrus marinade and sauce. [more ...]
