[libredwg] GRASS plugin using LibreDWG

[Rodrigo Rodrigues da Silva]

Hello folks,

I am proud to announce that the first piece of software using libredwg
(as far as I know, and except for LibreDWG examples) has just been
committed.

GRASS is a free software GIS (Geospatial Information System).
v.in.redwg is a port of v.in.dwg, which used DWGDirect, and is a plugin
that, as the name suggests, imports dwg files as vector data.

To try it, build or install GRASS[0] and check out the source code of
the GRASS-AddOns-svn:
 svn checkout https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass-addons/ grass-addons

The plugin is in grass-addons/vector/v.in.redwg

Since I wrote the code based on the main source tree (svn-trunk) and
then moved to the addons tree I'm not sure if it will work out of the
box or even build, as stated in [1], but I will work on it soon. If you
happen to hack on it, send me a patch and I will integrate it.

Happy hacking!
