Nice work Markus!

I am not very good in catchy intro words, but I would mention the number 
of new modules (44+ vector, grass and image modules + general, GUI, etc 
modules) and some key improvements / enhancements of existing modules 
(like the very significant speed improvements in vector handling)?

I guess the links are made with some kind of alias? Would it be possible 
to not show the 'G7:' as part of all links?

One question about bash the scripts. it is mentioned that all bash 
scrips are converted to Python. Perhaps obvious, but these concerns the 
scripts that are part of the GRASS installation. One can still use 
external bash scripts (and hopefully that will remain the case). For 
example, most scripts available in the grass 6 add-on repository can be 
used in grass 7, albeit sometimes some adaptations are needed because of 
syntax changes)

Cheers,

Paulo
