extremely negative. I'm totally against that. please lets just let the stable branch become stable. I don't want to see that change in 6.4.x, so no point to make 6.5 deviate from the stable branch any more than it already has. IMHO 6.5 is only for testing backports and fixes before actually commiting the backport to 6.4. I do not believe it's a fundamental flaw which can not be worked around in the current framework- calling a shell script from another shell script on WinGRASS does work- e.g. r.in.wms calls r.tileset (also a bunch of other private helper shell scripts). [that r.in.wms has other issues is not very relevant to this point] and so I reject the idea to fix a fixable bug by replacing a huge work of well tested code by much less tested replacements. I would like to declare 6.x closed for new major changes ASAP, if that is not already the case. New devel should happen in 7. thanks, Hamish _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
