SCHMITZM 2.5
---------------------
This version divides the SCHMITZM classes in on 4 modules:
- schmitzm-core
  Core functionalities with only dependencies to (small) core
  libraries (e.g. MigLayout, Log4J, JDom, ...).
- schmitzm-gt
  Extensions for geotools with depencency to schmitzm-core and
  geotools 2.6.5.
- schmitzm-jfree
  Extensions for core JFreeChart with depencency to schmitzm-core
  and JFreeChart 1.10.13.
- schmitzm-jfree-gt
  Geo-extensions for JFreeChart (create chart from shapefile) with
  depencency to schmitzm-core, schmitzm-jfree and schmitzm-gt.

This was done to reduce the library depencencies when only using a part
of the library. E.g. there is no need for the "big" geotools when only
using the core functionalities (schmitzm-core) or the base JFreeChart
extensions (schmitzm-jfree).
Furthermore a union of Steve's and Martin's classes was performed. All
classes previously located in package 'skrueger' were moved to package
'schmitzm'.


SCHMITZM 2.4.x
--------------
This branch is the last version which contains all SCHMITZM classes
in on module. Since 2.5 there will be several modules to
reduce the library depencencies when only using a part of the
library (e.g. no need for geotools when using only the core functionalities
or the base JFreeChart extensions).


SCHMITZM 2.3-SNAPSHOT
--------------
This trunk bases on version 2.3-SNAPSHOT and contains the next
developments and enhancements.


SCHMITZM 2.0 (rev 685, 2010-02-10)
----------------------------------
This version contains the last version of branch RC1.
It is the first stable SCHMITZM version which bases on
Geotools 2.6.1.


SCHMITZM 2.0-RC2
----------------
This branch bases on RC1 and includes developments and
extensions to make all parts stable especially for XULU.


SCHMITZM 2.0-RC1
----------------
This branch already bases on Geotools 2.6.x but is not
stable in all parts (e.g. JEditorPane to create FeatureCollections).
For GeoPublisher 1.3 the RC1 branch is stable version, which remains
fixed, except some bugfixes.
No more developments are included in this branch to avoid conflicts
with GeoPublisher 1.3.


SCHMITZM 1.0-gt2-2.6
--------------------
This branch bases on version 1.0 and contains the "tries"
to switch to Geotools 2.6.
Note: This branch is not stable!!!


SCHMITZM 1.1 (rev 682)
----------------------
This version contains the last version using Geotools 2.4.5.
After that the trunk is switched to Geotools 2.6.1.
The next release will be SCHMITZM 2.0.


SCHMITZM 1.0 (rev 314)
----------------------
This first version contains the latest "stable" version using
Geotools 2.4.5.
After that we are trying to switch to Geotools 2.6. Because
this will be another big step, there will be no (many)
subversions 1.x (maybe v1.1 with some bug fixes).
The next release directly will be SCHMITZM 2.0.
