Hello people

We were taking a look at the ShapeMarkFactory, that I guess Andrea
introduced some months ago in GeoTools 2.5.

Well, we're actually thinking about using it, but we're moving to
GeoTools 2.6 and there is no ShapeMarkFactory yet over there, as far as
I know. Is there a reason for not bringing it over? (it seems quite
trivial to do so).

Also, we may be interested in extending that factory to allow for custom
hatches that specify line width, an angle (i.e., a slash with x degrees
instead of always 45) and a spacing between each hatch line.
Does anybody have a suggestion about how to do that? Our current idea is
to have the extended factory understand something like:
   shape://customslash?width=1&angle=30&spacing=2

What do you think? Another idea would be to generate the shape somewhere
else and use something like factory.addShape() as suggested by Andrea
once, but I think in this case that idea may not be the most practical one.

Cheers
Milton
