I agree Andrea; they started coding very quickly :-) Is there any chance you
guys can use geotools 2.6? I would much rather see you work on respecting
the UOM entry that is already there; and copy the SLDParser so we can modify
and read that value in correctly.
I like to work on things we can keep :-) Rather then seeing you work on a
fork of geotools that will not last beyond your project.
