I would like to volunteer to be the maintainer of the ogr module.  I am
working on a branch with three fixes:

https://github.com/jericks/geotools/commit/110f5803e87262367dab69272e4f6ae1aef6288f

1. The GeoJSON format in older versions of GDAL doesn't support
LayerCanCreateField
correctly. I added it to the special exceptions list.
2. The failing spatial query test was due to GDAL (on my computer) not
being compiled with GEOS support. If GEOS is not included then GDAL uses
bounding boxes instead of actual geometries.
3. The CSV format test was failing because the first row which contains the
headers was being counted because of the property names the test was using.
For some unknown reason the property 'd' was causing GDAL to think the
first row had data. I make the property names slightly more realistic.

If this work looks good I can create a pull request.

Thank you,
Jared
