the idea is to allow the user to import SVG graphics to use as icons and
decorations within GRASS cartography, in a similar manner to how eps files can
be used in ps.map already.
I didn't mean about SVG output, which as you mention the cairo driver and
ps2{foo} tools (e.g. inkscape from the command line) can theoretically do.
wrt student experience & the Android + meta-data systems, I wouldn't totally
rule out students who bring other talents to the table but have no previous
experience with GRASS, or make it sound so hard that
a good student decides not to apply. I'm sure it will work itself out, I just
don't want to put a new student in a rough
position.
cheers,
