[GRASS-user] GRASS 7 and SQLITE o POSTGRES

[Benjamin Ducke]

That would be simply great!

With SpatiaLite support evolving in GRASS, QGIS and (perhaps)
gvSIG, there would finally be a sane way for direct exchange
of vector data between open source GIS without crippling it 
by going through abominations like Shapefiles.

Last Friday I met the SpatiaLite developer at the Italian GRASS/GFOSS
meeting (http://gfoss2009.crs4.it/) which was a great conference btw.

He is interested in linking GRASS and SpatiaLite, so maybe later
this year new features are added to put GRASS vector and also
raster data into SpatiaLite.
