Same way of GEOS 1.0.0, just lost from documentation, now fixed.

The NEWS file contains all changes which needs attention.
Basically API change invested geometry constructors and
CoordinateList->CoordinateSequence rename.

Geometry constructors all take ownership of passed CoordinateSequence
or vector<Geometry *>, and will store a pointer to the given
GeometryFactory. This was a mixed strategy for GEOS-1.0.0, and there
was no GeometryFactory, but PrecisionModel and SRID arguments.

CoordinateList became CoordinateSequence and the basic implementation
became DefaultCoordinateSequence (from BasicCoordinateList).
Factory for DefaultCoordinateSequence is a singleton and is accessed
with DefaultCoordinateSequenceFactory::instance().
