HI Andrea, All,

I've made some changes to the catalogng, based on feedback and suggestions
by Andrea. These I've incorporated into the codebase. Specifically, I manged
to add titles for each component by using a GridLayout for each
component(viewer) and added sashforms between them to be able resize the
components.

I've also created a menu operation for the last component, that allows users
to 'Copy to Clipboard' the path of the layer. However, I finished this after
the GSoC deadline, so I will push this code in after the 26th August so as
not to mess up the evaluations.

I've updated the wiki [1] with the up-todate screeshots and I added a few
more notes as well.

So that's it from me for the current GSoC CatalogNG - I had a great time,
and thank you all for the great support. And I must say that uDig is one of
the few open source projects with the best maintained documentation - the
starter docs for development was amazing.

I hope to hang around with the community after GSoC, to ensure the CatalogNG
goes into production based on further feedback and also to contribute to
uDig in whatever way I can.
