Hi, Hi,

Why GRASS should use different term when other GIS packages and the most of GIS-related literature use 'layer' in this context? I cannot see the point. > layer -> catset: sorry, yuck. > (if it must be renamed, what's was wrong with going back to "field"?) > [I remember Radim explained on-list why that was changed when it > became "layer", ... need to dig out that thread] Catset seems to me as better choice, since it puts categories to the set.
