[GRASS-dev] georeferencer - inspiration from gvSIG

[Michael Barton]

I can't run gvSIG, but maybe I can put it on a different machine and take a
look (it's developed by the University of Valencia, where I have
colleagues).

Some of your wishes are already built into the wxPython georeferencer. Have
you checked that yet?
