That looks like good fun Kenneth - +1 from me.

The next step is for me to make sure you have read the developers guide (you 
have read the developers guide right?); and then ask you to send in a code 
contribution agreement (the mailing address is included with the form).

When you tell me that is on the way we can go through getting you svn access.

You PDF is much more then we require in order to start an unsupported module; 
hopefully you will keep some of that as documentation.

Aside: I had actually though of doing a straight wrapper on to the EMF model 
(ie rather than recreating feature and featuretype in EMF as you have done); 
make a wrapper that translates feature.getAttribite( name ) into a call for 
eobject.get( name ) etc...

Your approach looks good; and powerful. I would like to confirm (please) that 
when you say your data structure is defined "same manner as in the postgis 
module", can I check that you mean you are extending ContentDataStore?

I just want to make sure another project does not start off using 
AbstractDataStore....

Forrester Wave Report - Recovery time is now measured in hours and minutes
not days. Key insights are discussed in the 2010 Forrester Wave Report as
part of an in-depth evaluation of disaster recovery service providers.
Forrester found the best-in-class provider in terms of services and vision.
