Ideally you would send an email to the geotools-devel list asking for a new
"unsupported" module. A PMC member (such as myself can get back to you and
ask for github credentials).
Have a look at the developers guide and see if you want to go this route:
* http://docs.geotools.org/latest/developer/procedures/create.html
*
http://docs.geotools.org/latest/developer/roles/maintainer.html#experimental-unsupported-modules
The advantage is others can see your work (and hopefully help you out with
testing/feedback/fixes).
All the best!
