GRASS5.0b development notes

[Markus Neteler]

Bill and Bernhard,

> Mails to the Baylor Address about several issues were never answered.
> Bill told me that he also never got an answer from the developers.
> The webstructure on Baylor seems to be a bit off, and nobody seems
> to care to link Bill's site from there.
> 
> The work was mentioned on the user list, too.
> Markus Neteler then contacted us and AFAIK mentioned the B. Hughes'
> patches to the Baylor developers, which at least partly seem to
> incorporate them. But still no comment about that.

well, let´s start again. After discussion with Bruce I will
take care for your patches now. To distribute the workload
I suggest that we stay in contact about including your patches
into the 5.0 code. I keep the line to Baylor then. Would that be o.k 
with you?


Generally speaking:

If you (the GRASS community) have patches, please send them to

      ftp://keck.baylor.edu/pub/grass/incoming/

For our small team it is rather time consuming to search for patches 
on the net ourselves. Therefore we kindly request you to upload
files to the GRASS ftp-Server. Please send an announce email as well.
We urgently need more support in GRASS development and programming.
Migrating all the 4.2.1 modules to 5.0 data structures is quite a 
big job... Beside the (voluntary) work on GRASS we have to work on
projects etc. Therefore support is very welcome.

Thank you very much

  Markus Neteler
