After a very, very, very long wait (much more delay than expected), I would like to slowly start the port of J2D renderer as a GO-1 implementation (or at least try to do).
Hi Martin, it has been too long since we worked together. In the spirit of your recent Go-1 post cory and I are are going to create the stylish branch. The plan is as described in those articles you commented on, I am going to try things out as separate interfaces.

There are 4 things on the table:
- the SLD 1.0 spec
- the GeoTools styling implementation
- the GeoAPI interfaces
- the plan of using different interfaces to capture different subsets of the styling problem (with some of the subsets being "standard")

The idea will be:
- use GeoAPI "ripped" interfaces to capture SLD 1.0 (can this be done or is that not their target?) - create GeoTools interfaces as the superset of SLD 1.0 and the experiments that are going on - use the GeoTools implementations behind both, in cases were different communities chose different we can map from one to the other

As an example of this last point GeoAPI uses java Font objects, while GeoTools sticks with the CSS entires used to define a Font. If possible we will use GeoAPI interfaces unmolested, but I suspect we will end up differing on matters of Geometry and Feature.

Cheers,
Jody
