[Geomoose-users] Feature Reports notes

[Dan Little]

Brent,

Is there any chance you can create a summarized clarification in an RST doc
or a Google doc? I'm sorry, I don't follow every post to full understanding
so if you can get something I can get more suitable for posting on the docs
website then I'll do it!

Thanks!
