Comment (by martinl):

 From grass-dev ML by Michael Barton:

 I echo Hamish's sentiments below. The page is nice, but I worry about
 hardcoding a link to a URL that we don't control. Also, GRASS (i.e., PROJ)
 can only read epsg codes that are in the database that comes with GRASS. I
 don't know if we can depend on the web version and local versions being
 the
 same.

 Re explanation of EPSG codes, we need a help manual for the location
 wizard.
 There are other aspects that need to be explained too. The new GUI is
 still
 under development and we are very grateful for any who are taking the time
 to test it. We also welcome any assistance--eg. Creating the html pages
 for
 location manager help. We could then add help buttons to pages.
