The GeoTools project has seen a lot of growth over the development of 
GeoTools 2.4. We have made several important changes to how the project 
is managed:
- we have introduced "unsupported" modules; allowing early access to 
community experiments (for a list of supported modules see
   http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=574856)
- we have adopted a formal change proposal system
