-GeoServer is a Java-base server that allows users to publish and edit
-geospatial data using open standards.
-
-GeoServer is the reference implementation of the Open Geospatial Consortium's
-Web Feature Service (WFS) and Web Coverage Service (WCS) standards, as well as
-a high-performance Web Map Service (WMS). Additional functionality is available
-through the use of plugins.
-
-This SlackBuild will install GeoServer as a web application for a Tomcat
-servlet container. The SlackBuild will not overwrite any geoserver.war file
-that has been deployed using /var/lib/tomcat/webapps, but by default they will
-both be using the same /geoserver web path. This path can be changed from its
-default by editing /etc/tomcat/Catalina/localhost/geoserver.xml.
-
-The SlackBuild will create a data directory for GeoServer at /var/lib/geoserver
-but will not add any content, meaning that uninstalls, reinstalls, and upgrades
-will not affect existing data directories. Nevertheless, the data directory
-should still always be backed up prior to an upgrade. An empty data directory
-will be populated by a minimal set of configuration files when GeoServer is
-started for the first time.
