I would like to get PR #1501 (depends on #1272) into master before<br>
branching as it is already quite large and disruptive.<br>
It is almost ready (today I wrote first of three management<br>

module can be then created as a separate PR at some point later.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'd really like to see these changes merged before the creation of grass 8 branch. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Maybe we can agree on a deadline that suits both the need to have an 8 branch for the upcoming conferences where a GRASS 8 demo is already accepted (<b>FOSSGIS is in ~2 weeks</b>) and the time needed to complete ongoing development at least up to a working version that can be merged. <br></div><div><br></div><div><a class="gmail_plusreply" id="plusReplyChip-0" href="mailto:maris.gis@gmail.com" tabindex="-1">@Maris Nartiss</a> what do you think?</div><div><br></div><div>my 0.2 cents</div><div>Vero<br></div></div><div class="gmail_quote"><br></div></div>
