Hi Jay,

Thanks, the link has been fixed.

As for api changes, there are two major development efforts on the
horizon. The first has to do with the grid coverage api, the second with
the feature model.

The grid coverage work has been completed on trunk. And I believe the
target for it is 2.3. I am not sure however the level of api breakage
that has occurred. One of the grid coverage guys can pipe up here.

For the feature model, it is has not been decided if a new model is
worth the cost. However, currently all the code that you use to build
features with the old model is deprecated, so you can expect breakage if
that ever goes through.

After this, I believe the intended focus is intended to be stability,
stability , stability. Geotools has received much criticism for its api
changes in the past. While these efforts going on are important to the
longevity of the project, it makes it hard to attract users. My 2 cents.
