= GRASS GIS =

== User Notes ==

 * A commandline and desktop raster/vector GIS system.
 * http://grass.osgeo.org/
 * Details on WinGRASS at: http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/WinGRASS_Current_Status
 * Current packaging should be considered a preliminary proof-of-concept.
 * STATUS: THIS PACKAGE IS CURRENTLY BROKEN - IT DEPENDS ON PROJ_FW.DLL INSTEAD OF PROJ.DLL!
 * Maintainer is FrankWarmerdam (seeking new package maintainer)

== Packager Notes ==

 * Alternative, new compile guide at http://www.webalice.it/marco.pasetti/grass/BuildFromSource.html
 * We likely want to distribute with MSYS package for commandline operations though I believe the WinGRASS objective is to not require this.
 * WinGRASS is built with MSYS/MinGW currently. The build to use VC++ built GDAL required a configure hack on GRASS.
 * There is a new python/wxWindows GUI in development we may want to include.
 * A number of things still being built directly into GRASS instead of using proper packages (curses, freetype, libpng, libz, ...)
