Hi Matthias,

We had a quick look at SLD 1.1 and it seems there won't be any huge 
breakage from our current interfaces, so go for it (otherwise we would 
want to quickly implement 1.1 for you).

Also: there have been some changes to how styles are generated using the 
brewer extension.  Check out the "Classifier" class and its affiliated 
ClassificationFunctions -- it is a nice bundle which holds ranges and 
breaks information...   I'll try to get the thematic styling page on 
udig trunk synchronized with trunk so there is a good example of use. 

Basically, we will put a Classifier and a set of colours into the brewer 
StyleGenerator class, and it gives us a StyledLayerDescriptor object 
back -- definitely need some documentation there :)

Cheers,
Cory.
