<pre wrap=""><!---->Hi Luigi,
There is a lot of nice data on there. I've had some trouble trying to
import the vector data, however. I keep getting a buffer-overflow with
v.in.ogr (see below). It happens with 6.4.0RC5, and with 6.5.svn. How
did you import them?
</pre>

Dear John,<br>
I have done a test import of country administrative boundaries at
110m:1 scale via v.in.ogr (GUI wxPython version) using GRASS 6.4.0svn
r36506 from OSGeo4W installer. Received no complaints.<br>
Regards,<br>
Luigi
