Welcome,
I answered a couple of questions I understand, and have left the rest to

I don't think anyone has tried Eclipse with Geotools yet, I'd be interested to

Try maven beta 8 instead.  There are known problems with 9.

extbin and gtbuild directories are now outdated now that we have moved to 
using maven.
