[GRASS-user] mentor required to help publish a GRASS addon (DEM)

[Rebecca Bennett]

Hi Andras,

Thanks for responding so quickly! I have read the information here 
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/HowToContribute but I'm not exactly certain 
what the mentor needs to do. I think they need previous experience of the 
GRASS-svn, code and uploading to the wiki? I have not contributed before so will 
need someone to help guide me through the process. 


I don't know if the mentor is required to check / run the code as well. I 
regularly use it for my work and have recently distributed it to a few of my 
colleagues to test with good results. However, a GRASS expert opinion of it 
would be most useful!

I should also mention that I have only run the script on linux (Ubuntu 64 bit) 
so some advice on developing a windows compatible version would be helpful as 
most of my contemporaries use GRASS on windows.

Please let me know if you are interested and I will send through the script and 
readme notes for you to look at.

Best wishes,
Rebecca

Dear Rebecca,

What do you need exactly? 
The stuff is very interesting.
