Well, let's get voting and get it done.

These are held at 00:00 or 01:00 my local time. I cannot attend. It
would be useful if discussions on the geoserver-devel mailing list were
taken into consideration by those who are able to attend.

A collection of Jira dumps is pretty unreadable.

I did not understand that one was required. I have added one. It took
several attempts to get it to show up. Hint: only fix version matters.

App-schema, and community schemas before it, has been on the 2.0 roadmap
for ages:
http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/Roadmap+Ideas

We also agreed to include it in 2.0_beta2.

Part of the problem is that all of app-schema main is in GeoTools, so
any issues will not show up in any GeoServer Jira plugin. Working around
this is very cumbersome.
