[GRASS-user] New stable release: GRASS GIS 7.0.0

[Venkatesh Raghavan]

Big thanks to all the developers for this amazing achievement.

I am sure that like me, many in the user community will be all smiles.
Release of 7.0.0 is a wonderful way to celebrate 32  years (on 29 July 
2013 [1])
of GRASS GIS.
