Good Mornig GRASSworld;
	We are attempting to acquire plat maps for Larimer County for the
area directly outside of Rocky Mountain National Park, and will probably
get these in .DXF format.  The trick is that they are in STATE PLANE and we
are UTM based.  By looking through the GRASSuser's mail archives I found that 
"m.geo" was recommended as the way to convert STATE PLANE --> UTM.  Since some
of you out there have attempted this process, and appear to have been 
successful, (since no followup reports of errors appeared on the lists), 
we would appreciate hearing from you if you have any advise on steps to follow, 
steps to avoid, etc., so we won't have to "reinvent the wheel".  

	Please E-mail responses to me directly, unless you feel that the 
entire community will benefit from your response. (Good advise for ALL that use
the lists, eh?)
