I agree GeoTools is difficult to use.
For the specific part of reprojection I don't really get what's 
difficult though:

CoordinateReferenceSystem crs1 = CRS.decode("EPSG:XXXX");
CoordinateReferenceSystem crs2 = CRS.decode("EPSG:YYYY");
MathTransform mt = CRS.findMathTransform(crs1, crs2, true);
m.transform(...)

I don't see how it can get any easier. (replace decode with parseWKT
if you need to provide a custom made CRS)

I also agree we'd need more examples

Cheers
Andrea
