New Server

Refractions is kindly hooking us up with a new server; there may be some transition pains as the website, mailing list and wiki are moved across.

In order to facilitate the global nature of uDig development Jesse Eichar from our project steering committee is also experimenting with a GIT repository located in Europe. For more information please join the developer list and say hi.
