[Freegis-list] JaGo and GeoTools: Any comparative remarks?

[Stefan F. Keller]

Dear all

I am interested in issueing a diploma thesis 
which should test - among other items - the capabilities 
of available open source geodata viewers (primarily as 
stand-alone clients applications). The primary goal is 
to use them for simple web mapping purposes of a universal 
vector geodata language (INTERLIS - the GeoLanguage; sort of 
superset standard of UML/GML from Switzerland, www.interlis.ch).

I've found JaGo and GeoTools so far. 
Now, I would like to ask you the following:

- has anybody experience using one of these or both?
- does anybody know other relevant projects?

Regards 
-- Stefan Keller

P.S. My first impressions:
- JaGo seems to me appealing but there is only one upload 
  compared to GeoTools.
- GeoTools is more active but I could not evaluate its 
  architecture yet.
