Sorry, I had to make priorities at work and have been very absent from grass-dev in the last year. I'll try to find some time to be a bit more present in the future. Concerning d.thematic.area/line/point: It's good that d.thematic.area is finally tested a bit. I know it is still in beta state at best, but I hope that someone a bit knowledgeable can fairly quickly smooth out some of the rough edges. Over half a year ago I mentioned that I had actually started working on d.thematic.linepoint (name open to discussion obviously ;-) ), but that it still needed work. Unfortunately, I have not found the time to touch it since (the problem being that I normally need a few days in a row to really get into the programming mode again). Martin suggested I post the code as is to svn, but I was a bit hesitant as I think it needs a bit more work before it can be shared. I will see if I can find time this week to work on it, otherwise I'll just submit the code as is...
