Hi to all. I'll shed a little bit light on the issues from a developer point of view (both proposals from Giuseppe and another one that Sunburned Surveyor mentioned):
1) Kosmo plug-in model I'll start with a little bit of history to clarify some ideas: Kosmo started on August 2005. Our starting seed was the JUMP 1.0 fork implemented by the Agiles group (the two starting developers of Kosmo were part of the founders of this group). This fork implemented an on-demmand framework to the existing JUMP datasource framework. Why don't we use the 1.1.2 JUMP version that was already present at that date? When we implemented the on-demmand framework on the last version, the results that we obtained were worse that those obtained with the 1.0 fork. So we decided to start with it and added to this version some of the improvements that were made to JUMP from the 1.0 to the 1.1.2 version. As we were advancing in the development of Kosmo, we have added some of the improvements made to JUMP and also to OpenJUMP. The plugin model that Kosmo uses is basically the same: we have added some methods to the interfaces and the abstract classes, but they haven't been changed heavily. There is no plugín dependency system implemented. The extension model have been also improved, but is almost the same too. 2) Save as - project file format I think that a common project file format won't be a good choice: currently each application uses its own project saving framework and it'll be difficult for each one to change it to a common one. I think that a better choice would be to implement a import/export OpenJUMP project option in Kosmo and an import/export Kosmo project option in OpenJUMP. We share some common objects (Task, Category, Layer, FeatureCollections, DataSourceQuery, JUMP Styles, ...) that can be recovered from the project XML file and loaded into each one. 3) SLD Import/Export Kosmo only supports SLD export so far (the import plugin is planned but it's not implemented yet). As Giuseppe says, this format can be used to export/import the layer simbology between the two projects, as SLD is a standard and it's not binded to a determinate application. Kosmo also allows to save its own simbology format because we use some improvements that are not present in the SLD standard. But most of the Kosmo simbology can be exported to a SLD file without problem. Each application could accept the parts of the standard supported, and the rest of the file could be ignored. I think the SLD format it's a good choice. Regards, PD: We've tested the Kosmo SLD export against UDIG 1.1 rc14 and all of the tests have succeded. I've also test against the last OpenJump nightly build with some sld files generated by Kosmo and the OJ SLD import plugin has a problem when reading the color values: it seems to read the color value string with a lot of spaces before and after it, and the Color.decode() function fails (this could be corrected by calling to the method colorString.trim()).
