Happened over a couple of meetings; posted a wiki page asking for

This is where we were hoping for your comment Justin (well and simboss), 
you can make:
- DataStore extends DataAccess
- FeatureSource extends Source
- FeatureStore extends Store

Do you want to do that now or later? I cannot see any advantage to doing 
it now (other then sanity check) since the benefit is in terms of making 
use of TypeName etc... problems we noticed with the FM branch.

Has nothing to do with uDig; this is all about making sure we can run 
additional content (besides our broken feature model) through the system.
