Hi all,

Just wanted to share a new Java library available on Maven Central. cf4j
(CF for Java) is a simple library that provides constants for all CF
standard names and feature types. The standard names are generated via XSLT
from the xml representation of the standard names[1] provided on the CF
Metadata site. The major version of cf4j corresponds to the revision number
of the CF standard names it provides (currently 19).

The project is hosted on GitHub here:
https://github.com/axiomalaska/cf4j

Project documentation is available here:
http://axiomalaska.github.com/cf4j/

...and JavaDocs here:
http://axiomalaska.github.com/cf4j/apidocs/

The most useful class is CFStandardNames, which provides all of the
standard name constants:
http://axiomalaska.github.com/cf4j/apidocs/com/axiomalaska/cf4j/CFStandardNames.html

The library will be updated as new versions of the CF names are produced. I
needed the library while working on a Sensor Observation Service project
and wasn't aware of any Java resources that provided versioned CF names.
Hopefully it will be useful for someone.

Best,
Shane
