Notes about Module epsg/wkt 

I use it because I have an app using geotools and the epsg database has 
always no or incorrect boursa wolf parameters for Austria. So I have to 
add/correct the TOWGS84 clause to the wkt definitions. 

The file based approach is the easiest way to do this. If there is no module 
maintainer, I could do this job if you like. 

Btw, the same holds true for geoserver, I am not sure if geoserver uses this 
module but I have always to correct these parameters too. 

Another reason is that at many enterprises you are simple not allowed to 
install additional db systems on production systems, but nobody has a 
problem with a file. 

I think a good idea would be an "epsg adapter" where one can register its 
own wkt definitions, backed by the original wkt defenitions. Life will be 
easier :-) 

Provided that  all my thoughts are correct here, +1 for keeping the module.
