This all sounds like a good plan. See below for a couple comments.

Hi,
2008/9/6 Michael Barton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
At the moment, the GUI is pretty complete in giving a user
interface to all
of GRASS. So I suggest that this is a good time to stop adding new
things
and try to make sure all the things we already have work well.
Obviously we
should keep accumulating ideas for enhancements and new features,
but simply
try to resist the temptation to try to implement them.
I agree, proposal:
* in next weeks create releasebranch_64
* fixing bugs in the release branch
* development goes to develbranch_6 (leading to 6.5) and *especially*
trunk (grass7)
* make wxGUI working under MS Windows (including vector digitizer)
* release RC1 testable on MS Windows (including installer, Marco?) --
Don't forget Mac too. Maybe William Kyngesburye can help with the
compilation issues. Neither vdigit nor the new ndim visualizer will
compile with Mac--even though it is on a Unix platform.
middle of October could be reasonable time
* till the end of the year release 6.4.0
With a busy academic year already starting, I'm finding much less
time to
work on the GUI and I suspect that Martin's term is nearing
beginning too.
So the less developer time available, also makes this a good time for
getting caught up with where we are now.
Yes, in next week I am going back to Prague after almost two years to
restart working at the university, so probably I will have not so much
time for wxGUI.
I'd like to appeal for some help from you folks especially for the
cross-platform implementation issues. Most of these are C, C++, or
compilation related. These are areas where I do not have expertise
to do
We definitely need more people to be actively involved.
Martin
