Stefan, You have indeed been the OpenJUMP project for the past few months, and for that I am grateful, as I know others are.
I was just curious about your purposes for OpenJUMP, since most developers seem to be involved with it as part of another project. I'm glad I'm not the only freelancer. :] I was wondering what you thought about preparing another stable release of OpenJUMP in the next couple of moths. I will have some time off of work in December. Perhaps I could help you come up with a list of fixes and patches for the next official release and we could work towards that goal together? I know you are busy, however. If you would like to offer your thoughts on what needs to be done before a new release I can see what I could do on my own to make the improvements.
