Btw, i did this on the branch i pushed up, that is added an exclusion on
the jts dependency. I can't remember exactly what JTS uses it for but its
part of the "IO" packages which i don't think are really used anywhere by
GeoTools. I could be wrong.
To sum up Michael, as of java 1.6 (might even be 1.5) the java runtime
ships with an internal version of xerces, so its technically not needed.
But its not exposed directly (or at least in the proprietary package
com.sun). So using it involves using a new "jaxp" / javax.xml api.
