[GRASS-dev] New splash screen for GRASS GIS 7?

[Michael Barton]

That's great!

I've been trying to find a georeferenced historic map and see what I could do with it. So far, the oldest one I've found is Moll 1736. I finally got it into GRASS and started doing overlays of global maps and found out the georeferencing is not accurate. Even if it was, your's is better.
