re. Michael's suggestion that if OpenDWG can't be included in
distributions of GRASS then maybe a non-GPL standalone translator app is
called for, as we can't reasonably expect everyone who needs DXF support
to be able to compile for themselves (even if it would be good for them
and make them better human beings etc).


OGR seems like the natural place for this to happen.

The problem then moves to finding someone qualified to do it or finding
the money to pay Frank to do it..

Or find some libreware saviour to write a LGPL dwg library from scratch.
