Other two questions:
- is there some thought about a usermanagement in udig? Something like:
I have more than a user that is doing simulations with udig and he needs
to have to login so that the system can keep track of who is doing what.
We have traditionally left that up to applications that build ontop of uDig. I can think of three applications that have done this bit of work so far. There are a number of candidates for "user management" in the RCP space (and sometimes in the RCP/Java EE space) so it would be nice if uDig could stay out of this problem.
That said we *do* have a need to manage security credentials according to user. 
- I see it is possible to color features by classes. In the style wizard
in the combobox there are max only 12 possible classes. Why is that
limited to 12?

This is a limitation of colour research - http://colorbrewer.org/
That is if you are doing categorization 12 is about the most humans can actually figure out (and less if you are colour blind). Are you sure what you are looking for is not a "colour ramp" where the attributes are literally used with a function call 
to determine a smooth colour gradient?

Hi,

I am releasing RC9 right now which has fixed a number of critical
problems loading images that were uncovered in RC8.  You can try it out at:

Windows:
<http://udig.refractions.net/downloads/RC9/udig-1.1.RC9-unofficial.exe>
Linux:
<http://udig.refractions.net/downloads/RC9/udig-1.1.RC9-unofficial.linux.gtk.x86.zip>
Mac OSX:
<http://udig.refractions.net/downloads/RC9/udig-1.1.RC9-unofficial.macosx.carbon.x86.zip>

For ECW I think that we have to wait for the gdal backed support which
is under development but I don't l know when it will be ready for "real"
use.  Send an email to the geotools list for an answer on that.

Finally if there is no .prj then you will probably need RC9 because it
allows you to tell a layer what the projection is.

Thanks Adrian and Jesse,

I was using uDIG 1.1.0 RC8 and wound back to a stable release (1.0.6).

It works OK now (for adding JPEG or GeoTIFF images), but seems to have
a real problem rendering vectors (lines or polys) over the top.

This may be because there is no PRJ file associated with either the
SHP or JPG/TIF images.

Is there any estimate for when ECW “may” be available ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Shaun
