check out the new v.external module. http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/manuals/html64_user/v.external.html http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/manuals/html64_user/vectorintro.html and the v.external.out module in GRASS 7-dev. note this is about the geometry data, the attribute data could already be stored in a plain postgres DB since GRASS 5.7. also there is a new r.external module, combine that with GDAL's `gdalbuildvrt` Virtual raster maps (eg *.tif) and cut out a whole slew of middle-steps and disk writes. don't expect these virtual maps to work as well as native maps of course, but they shouldn't be buggy either.
