[GRASS-user] grass vector model, cats and layers concept

[Benjamin Ducke]

Thanks Vincent,

This is something that was needed
for a long time. A few suggestions:

I find the light grey that you used
extensively in the illustration
hard to read.

Since the word "field" is also
a technical key word in this context,
I would rename the example table
"fields" to "plots".

Best,

Ben
