 Yes, but If I remember well v.out.ogr was cutting the field name
 length more then 10. Am I wrong?
 Otherwise we could add this feature..

What do you mean, Luca?

We might use the new parser abbreviator here

E.g. 'int_percentile_90' -- 'ip90'

I also seem to remember that before v.out.ogr would export all columns,
even if they had field names of more than 10 characters. In those cases it
would simply use the first 10 characters as column name. Or am I confusing
this with other software I have used in the past? I think it would in any
case be better to export those fields with truncated field names than to
skip them.

 This syntax would open many possibilities and make life much easier for

 some time as important changes may be backported from trunk to 7.0, just

I would recommend 7.0.0RC2 if you cannot postpone installation.

 From my experience as a user, G7 has improved dramatically respect to 6,
 in new functionalities but especially for the capacity of handling large
 data sets.


I agree with the above, G7 is such an improvement in terms of features and
general improvements that there is really no reason to stay with G6. What
advantage would keeping G6.4 have?

 HI,

 I tried to import the NUTS3 map(s) from EU which leads to some obscur
 warnings (see below). While most can be solved with a mild snapping,
 still four islands are reported as an error.

The islands are not reported as an error. The error is that 9912 areas
(2748 areas with snap=1e-8) overlap. It is up to the user to decide if
overlapping areas are ok or not. The G7.1 message reports that areas
are overlapping, this might be an error or not. The G7.0 message says
that overlapping areas are errors, which is wrong because overlapping
areas can indeed occur.

With regard to the test data, I think I know this Europe NUTS3
dataset. Some areas are double labeled, snapping will not help here.
You need to look at the overlapping areas (layer=2) and you need to
decide which label in layer=1 (the area has several labels in layer 1)
is most probably correct (hint: search for other areas with the same
label in layer 1).

Markus M

 They are Andorra, etc and
 apparently really valid. The error message though suggests that the
 import was not successful. Could this be fixed?
