This is actually the best place to provide feedback !

Mmm... I've just check the page and I can't see this problem in any of
the pom snippets. Where on the page is it ?

Yes, the jai_core issue is known and a fix will be included in version
2.6.1 which will be out very soon. GeoTools was forcing people to have
JAI installed even if they were only working with vector data (JAI is
a raster image processing library).

As far as I know the JMF issue hasn't been reported before.  I don't
have this jar on my system but don't get the error. Howerver, I'm
using a different IDE and OS.

Perhaps one of the other Eclipse users here can help us out with this one ?

Many thanks for your feedback.

Michael
