00:08:45 <springmeyer> hey ninja_: you had a question about projection forwarding previously? get that figured out?
00:09:08 <ninja_> yes i did springmeyer: thanks :)
00:09:21 <ninja_> it was basically figuring out how to do projection forwarding in c++
00:09:26 <springmeyer> cool. :)
00:09:46 *** aub (n=aubrey@static-70-107-236-83.ny325.east.verizon.net) has joined #mapnik
00:10:01 <springmeyer> what cha up to with c++ ?
00:10:16 <springmeyer> hello aub
00:10:29 <ninja_> haha basically just the same code thats in python move it to c++
00:10:35 <ninja_> and notice any speedups
00:10:48 <ninja_> with openmp support for gcc
00:10:51 <springmeyer> cool cool.
00:11:01 <springmeyer> .g openmp
00:11:02 <nikq> springmeyer: http://www.openmp.org/
00:12:06 <springmeyer> huh, cool. you must be writing your custom tile generator?
00:12:40 <springmeyer> trac.mapnik.org could use some c++ code samples ;)
00:12:52 <ninja_> yeah i thought about that too :)
00:15:48 <aub> springmeyer: hello!
00:23:41 <aub> i'd like to use mapnik's ogcserver with an XML file for the map. can i only do that with a patched mapnik at present?
00:25:24 <springmeyer> aub, the XML patch has landed in trunk, so you can pull from trunk and test
00:25:51 <springmeyer> It's alpha code still at this point so testing is greatly appreciated
00:25:51 <aub> oh, nice. thanks
00:26:05 <springmeyer> aub: r901
00:26:06 <nikq> http://trac.mapnik.org/changeset/901, at , by dane: OGCServer: add support for load_map() within WMSFactory (thanks xcacou,theosys,and tmcw for early patches) (closes #129)
00:26:21 <springmeyer> aub: #226
00:26:21 <nikq> Ticket #226: OGCServer Style and Layer ordering with load_map() support, http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/226
00:26:38 <springmeyer> aub: what is your usecase for the OGCServer?
00:27:12 <aub> springmeyer: i'm trying to build custom maps for my company's web site using it as a back-end
00:28:19 <springmeyer> okay. so depending on 1) how dynamic your data is, 2) how large/complex your XML file is, and 3) what clients you need to support
00:28:46 <springmeyer> you may or may not be best off using the OGCServer.
00:29:16 <aub> springmeyer: interesting. what would you recommend instead?
00:29:51 <aub> springmeyer: assuming a fairly large XML file and some dynamic data, probably using OpenLayers on the front-end
00:29:56 <springmeyer> for dynamic data, small to moderate XML, and a wide range of clients via the WMS standard, OGCServer is a good option
00:31:07 <springmeyer> okay. well OpenLayers supports just about any tiling scheme you can throw at it, so you're not limited to WMS then
00:31:57 <crschmidt> Depending on the size of 'some', I might say that using TileCache on static data, and rendering non-static data on the client side is an nteresting approach
00:32:12 <crschmidt> but that works if the size of the dynamic data is in the dozens of items, nothing more
00:33:34 <aub> gotcha. so, I can use Tilecache and render the tiles through mapnik but not use ogcserver? sorry for noob questions
00:33:43 <crschmidt> Yep
00:33:45 <springmeyer> yes, exactly
00:34:34 <aub> great. i had assumed that TileCache was used just as a caching layer that went btw the client and ogcserver
00:34:38 <springmeyer> TileCache has a slick way of interacting directly with mapnik's python bindings
00:35:06 <springmeyer> it can be used that way but for mapnik can ingest an xml and render tiles without the OGCServer
00:35:41 <aub> ok, that's great. will look into it

14:46:46 <darragh> Any plans for a new release of mapnik? 0.5.1 is nearly a year old?
14:52:17 <Berteun> darragh: You can always download the current development version.
14:52:27 <crschmidt> Yes, many plans are in progress for Mapnik 0.6
14:52:33 <Berteun> Quite a few things have changed, I don't know when a new release will be there.
14:55:44 <TomH> March is what artem suggested last night
