[GRASS-user] 3D DXF output: howto?

[Benjamin Ducke]

There is also nothing that is as easily fooled ;)

But seriously: I am currently trying to switch completely
to open source components for teaching my classes.
I have seen some amazing things that blender and vterrain.org
can do and frankly, I am so sick and tired of ArcGIS et al.,
the random crashes, the format incompatibilities, the lack
of * real * functionality ...

Btw. would someone be interested in joining me to publish a list of the
most appaling ArcGIS annoyances on the GRASS Wiki?
I could add some "fun facts" ...
