The GeoTools 2.5-M2 milestone release is available for download:
* http://geotools.codehaus.org/2.5-M2
The GeoTools 2.5 series has been updated to use *Java 5*, and has
undergone many improvements. This release is centred around making a new
Feature model available. The new feature model is based on formal GeoAPI
interfaces and allows the library to work complex data structures.
Since this is the first time the Feature model is being made available
to the public this release should be considered *alpha*. Both the
GeoServer and uDig projects have successfully migrated, so you are in
good company.
Features from 2.5-M2:
* JAXB bindings for the metadata module (ie support for ISO 19139
documents)
* FeatureAccess super class for DataStore, allowing data access
using ISO
Features from 2.5-M1:
* Change over to GeoAPI SimpleFeature
* Support GetGMLObject
* Preview of new Swing Widgets (and a warm welcome to Eclesia)
Features from 2.5-M0:
* Online User Guide
* Java 5
* Improved CRSAuthorityFactory implementations available for Java
Enterprise Edition users
* ISO 19107 Geometry implementation available as a supported module
* DB2 returns to supported status
* ArcSDE returns to supported status
* GeometryBuilder utility class

make a good impression and alpha software is not the way to do it.
Enjoy,
