Nice work Micheal!
A couple thoughts:
1) when you are interested we can cut a milestone release; giving people a
8.0-M3 to "switch" to (for anyone worried udig is using the last milestone
release for the latest uDig 1.2.2 and we are amazed at the drawing performance)
2) Volunteers can help on gt-swing; while it is in "unsupported" status it is
very easy to get commit access ...
