[udig-devel] GeoTools 2.4 and uDig 1.2 timescales

[Adrian Custer]

Hey Jody, all,

Be warned I can't participate in a conversation properly because I'm very
badly connected for the moment.

Jody, you say 1.2 is planned against gt 2.5. Might you consider releasing
1.2 against 2.4? It would allow us to have one final release against the
latest and greates simple feature geotools. I think for sanity and user
future, it would be a good safety valve for everyone.

Regrardless, I'll be working against revision 26360 which was the last I was
able to dowload and put into my local bzr repository. As an aside, bazaar
has been a pleasure to work with from the get go although I'm really only
starting with it. I suspect having local versioning would have avoided a lot
of the junk floating around udig.
