The following message is from Volker (of couchdb for GIS presentation
fame) who wanted to hook couchdb up to GeoTools. Turns out OpenGeo
engineering had a blog post with an example of adapting the properties
datastore to hitting a restful web service. Volker picked up that code
and started porting it to GeoTools 2.6 feature model; and then got fed
up with the GeoJSON parser.
I also thought the AuScope team had a developer working on a generic
web service data access recently? Please advise Ben?

PS. Thanks for taking part in the code sprint Voker.

Subject: RESTful datastore for GeoTools
Hi,
In case anyone wants to create a RESTful HTTP (with GeoJSON) datastore,
here are my findings (I tried that yesterday, but ran out of time and
skills). There is a prototype in JIRA already [1], which uses it's own
GeoJSON parser [2]. As its code base is for GeoTools 2.4 I would code
the datastore from scratch, with that one as a template. For GeoJSON
parsing I'd use the one from the Mapfish project [3] instead.
