I'm still catching up recent geonews. About a week ago was announced GeoTools 2.6.0. Reminder: "GeoTools is an open source Java library that provides tools for geospatial data".
From the announcement: "Much of the effort in developing GeoTools 2.6 has been focussed on quality and performance but there are also a number of new features including :
* The gt-process module now makes it possible to integrate external libraries such as Sextante into GeoTools applications. It also now provides vector to raster conversion.
* The new gt-swing module with a basic collection of GUI components, many of which can be seen in use in our Quickstart and example applications.
* A cleaner set of modules with a number of previously unmaintained and redundant modules being removed."
