- Color-blending has been introduced as both a FeatureTypeStyle and Symbolizer vendorExtension allowing for a range of special effects. Thanks to Cleveland Metro Parks for this improvement.
- A FeatureTypeStyle vendorExtension "firstMatch" will stop at the first rule
- Anchor points are now supported.

- A new gt-solr data store is available for working with with Apache Solr
- AbstractDataStore is now deprecated - please make plans to migrate to ContentDataStore.
- There is an extensive ContentDataStore Tutorial to help with your migration. Thanks to Travis for updating the initial tutorial used at FOSS4G.

- CSVDataStore has been improved with write access and the ability to work with different kinds of CSV files (lat/lon, WKT, etc...). Thanks to Travis for this work.
- The gt-wfs client has improved:
- Improved compatibility with MapServer
- Extensive work has been done to support WFS 2.0 transacations. Thanks to Niels for this work.
