mmm I'm not sure of this.

- - I would implement the first part as an abstract provider
- - Then wrap it as a provider for GeoServer as a GeoTools datastore
(maybe I'm wrong on the specific vocabulary, sorry)
- - And then consume it at gvSIG mini using the GeoGJSON output format and
the most basic WFS requests

This way you are allowing other clients (OpenLayers, i.e.) to use your
development and also implementing an OGC standard on gvSIG Mini (or at
least a part of it).

And as a extra points, someone afterwards can wrap your abstract
provider as a gvSIG 2.0 DAL one to be used on gvSIG Mobile and gvSIG
Desktop... triple win!!! XD

Hope it helps
