The biggest changes between this version and the original beta version
(2 weeks ago) is that this version has Gabriel's code re-organization
and it now passes the 477 CITE WFS tests.

This version of Geoserver has had a lot of good improvements to it over
the last 2 weeks (when 1.3.0-beta was released) - mostly usability and
bug fixes.
