Jing,

Since we already have GWSDL for GET, there is no need to re-do it with
interface-first approach.
I will check out the gt3-installaion-linux.txt. Thanks.

Hi, Bing:

So you want go to Interface (class) first way rather than GWSDL first way.
But now in our build.xml, we can generate everything (except the
impletementation :) ) automatically from GWSDL. If we go to Interface
first way, we need to rewrite our build file. Do you have some particular
reseaon to do it?

About the documentation, I think we already had some in ecogrid component.
For example, the README file has some clue to use build file. In docs, there
is file named
gt3-installaion-linux.txt can help people to installed gt3. But they are
drafts and need be improved.

Thanks.

Jing
