It is our aim to get Thuban out of the door with 1.0 quickly since we think it is already a very helpful tool. Any comments welcome. I will also incorporate the page http://thuban.intevation.org/roadmap.html into the Thuban site. Note for translators: there is a 2-weeks timeslot for the translations. Hope you feel comfortable with it. However, it is no problem to start a couple of weeks earlier - the changes should be not too extensive from that time on.

Jan-Oliver, What do you think of integrating OGR support for vector data sources like Oracle Spatial as an option (like the gdal). This would provide lots of additional formats. I would add that OGR now has reasonable Python bindings. OGR also has PostGIS support of course, but you may want a more tightly integrated support for PostGIS.

Well - in case the compliance to SFSQL is actually fully given. For the integration of OGR we currently simply lack manpower. Also all the new fomrats might introduce new problems ... ? The roadmap until 1.0 more or less covers what the man power of Intevation is able to carry out. Plus the volunatary help of the translators of course.

There are lots of new features to explore. Here's an overview: - Projection Management The new projection dialog makes it possible to import, export, create and select projections which can then be applied to layers and maps. - Automatic Classification Generation The tedious work of adding new groups to a classification is greatly simplied with this new tool. Classificatons can be generated using uniform distributions, unique values, or quantiles. The visual properties (e.g. line width, line color, and fill color) are also adjusted according to predefined color schemes, or a custom scheme. - Image Layers Images that are supported by GDAL (e.g. GeoTIFF) can be added to Thuban as layers. They then behave just as layers do and can be raised, lowered, and even projected. - Table Joins Independent tables can be opened with Thuban and joined with other tables. The results can then be exported or treated just as any other table in the session. - Table Queries The table view has a new query function which allows shapes to be selected based on certain criteria which their fields match. Results from a query are highlighted both in the table and in the map. Queries can also be refined with other search criteria. - Legend The legend provides a more user-friendly face to the session tree (which is still available). It displays each layer along with any classification. The layers can be raised, lowered, shown, or hidden through the toolbar on the legend. A layer's properties are accessible by double-clicking a layer or selecting the properties button. - Improved Printing Maps are framed and printed with the legend and scalebar. - Export under Windows On Windows platforms maps can be exported to Enhanced Meta-File format.

Thuban certainly reveals the ability to connect to various other Free Software packages easily. There is nothing yet picked up for the official roadmap, but good ideas are welcome. Realizing such features depends on whether people have the time or money to invest into the development. We are indeed thinking about how UMN MapServer can benefit from Thuban, but nothing decided so far. Also, we (Intevation) needs to aquire a corresponding project to realize such ideas within a short time. However, we welcome and will try to support any development activity that contributes to Thuban.

Also, do you have a file named like wxmsw24.dll or similiar? It also might be that you need the exact version used to build Thuban. Have you tried with wxPythonWIN32-2.4.0.6-Py22.exe ? > im new to python so a little help on installing > this would be very appreciated Installing wxPython is a lot more difficult than installing python. You could try if you can run the wxPython demos. Bernhard -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Is it possible that the tarball and the rpm is missing the default.proj file? For me Thuban crashes on Debian testing/unstable if I manage to install everything and try to display something. The only message is: Segmentation fault. This does not happen when I try to create a new projecttion. The default projects are not there to select. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
