amazing, that is one thing I would love to do. We use JPA and
Hibernate with simple extention points and having a standard way to do
this would be just amazing.

Ahhh, there it is. I am not sure how I have been able to miss that
email. Sorry about that. Maybe knowing it a bit before I would even
have been able to attend the meeting.
Well, good to hear it started. Thanks Andrew.

Still the question holds: who is going to start the process of getting
uDig to eclipse. I think we would need to have at least a couple of
members of the communtiy to assure presence and contribution. Did I
loose another email thread?

Cheers,
Andrea
