We are happy to announce the release of GeoNode 1.1, an open source
platform that facilitates the creation, sharing, and collaborative use of
geospatial data and maps.

This release is an important milestone for us. It represents additional
commitment by the developers to the stability of the project. It is also
the culmination of over a year of hard work and collaboration on the part
of developers, designers, domain experts, and users. Thank you to everyone
who has been involved in this effort. Major contributions from
OpenGeo<http://opengeo.org/>,
the World Bank <http://www.worldbank.org/>, GFDRR <http://www.gfdrr.org/>,
AIFDR <http://www.aifdr.org/>, and others in the community made this
release possible.
New Features

New features included in this release include:

   - Support for GeoServer 2.1, including:
      - GeoWebCache integration
      - direct Shapefile-to-PostGIS import from the GeoNode upload form
      (thanks to Matt Bertrand<http://www.iq.harvard.edu/people/matt_bertrand>
      )
      - speed improvements to the way GeoNode manages GeoServer
      configuration
   - Support for GeoNetwork 2.6
   - Various UI improvements, including:
      - a new user profile page listing the user’s layers and maps
      - a “Get feature info” tool to identify feature attributes when
      viewing maps
      - improved map transitions and performance
   - Increased coverage in GeoNode’s automated test suite
   - Better feedback from admin tools (thanks to Ariel
Núñez<http://www.gfdrr.org/gfdrr/node/11>
   )
   - Installer for Ubuntu (thanks to Ariel
Núñez<http://www.gfdrr.org/gfdrr/node/11>
   )
   - Numerous bug fixes thanks to support from partners at last year’s
roadmapping
   summit <http://geonode.org/2011/05/roadmapping-summit/>
   - Translations in…

Notes for Upgraders
Some migration steps are required for this update. Users of the GeoNode
packages for Ubuntu will have these applied automatically. However, if you
are manually managing your installation, you will need to use the following
SQL commands:

ALTER TABLE maps_maplayer
ALTER COLUMN layer_params TYPE text,
ALTER COLUMN source_params TYPE text;

Spread the word about GeoNode 1.1 and please give us your feedback as you
use it. Your comments will steer the project’s future.

Thanks David for taking the lead on this release, and to all the
community for their contributions.

One of the items I will be working on during the sprint this week is
integrating the translations in Greek, Indonesian and Portuguese, as
well as reviewing the updates for the French one and the Spanish one.
They will hopefully be part of the next minor release.

Ariel.

As we include these translations, can we also take a look at the parts
of the interface that are not included in the translations. As I
worked with our friends in Bogor on the Indonesian translation, we
noticed several places that didnt occur in the locale files. We also
started a doc on how to actually do the translation, but Im not sure
where it lives at the moment (will hunt it down).

Im happy to help with any/all of this during the sprint this week. Its
an important part of the project!
