I like more the "Bringing advanced..." than "Opening advanced..." because
it has emphasis on features. Not everybody understands advantages of
openness (yet).

Note that it should be "GRASS GIS", not "GRASS" as much as possible.

We can just create a image with logo+GRASS GIS+motto which could be used as
splash and perhaps elsewhere too, for example in headers/titles of pages
where we have just the logo and not name (Trac, manual). See attachment for
suggestion.
