[GRASS-dev] Modules

[Michael Barton]

But we are not, at least for an overall GUI. This was hashed out a year ago,
including discussions of mergers (no interest in either group and different
trajectories). 

IMHO, while digitizing is important, this one function doesn't seem a
sufficient reason to scrap all the planning and work invested for continuing
to evolve the main interface for GRASS when it is going according to plan
and schedule--including work on a replacement digitizing module. As you've
pointed out, an interactive interface is a very important component of a
GIS. I don't think that depending on an independent, separate project to
provide the primary user interface for GRASS is in the best interests of the
project and its users.
