So: * We have seen a dependency toward "imageio-ext" and assumed that it was about GDAL bindings. We were wrong, there is no dependency toward GDAL, sorry about that. * We still have this dependency toward "imageio-ext" in a library module. Its scope will be changed to "test", thanks. *

To clarify once again: - the grid coverage renderer code does NOT depend in anyway on the arcgrid module, I just use the arcgrid reader to load some test data when testing the colormap creation - Now if you are getting so nervous about this, we can load the test-data in a different way, we'll op

Hello, We would like to start a discussion around JNI. As you have seen in the past months some work has be done on GDAL. This work is great and can be useful to handle more raster formats, but the problem is that GeoTools is getting tightly linked to those JNI classes. It seem's that the app
