52°North publishes first quality assured Web Notification Service !

Dear FreeGIS list,

Our Web Notification Service v1-0-0 has successfully completed the 
52°North quality assurance testing. This Java Servlet acts as a protocol 
transducer, executing and managing message dialogues between a client 
and one or more Web Service(s) for long asynchronous processes. The 
incoming XML encoded messages are currently translated to email (SMTP), 
short message service (SMS), fax, phone, HTTP POST and XMPP.
SingleUser and/or MutliUser can register to receive either a 
Notification message (a one-way message) or a Communication message (an 
answer to the message received is expected). If the message is too long, 
for example for SMS, fax and/or phone, the WNS stores the message and 
delivers only a short description of where to get the full message.
52°North components strive for interoperability. The 52N WNS, developed 
within the Sensor Web Anablement (SWE) Working Group, will be integrated 
into the 52°North SWE Web Services. It will be used by the 52N Sensor 
Planning Service (SPS) to communicate between the SPS and the sensor 
user and will provide the 52N Sensor Alert Service (SAS) with protocols 
not supported by the SAS.
