ANNOUNCE: new GRASS 4.2.1 (V.17) - new TclTKGRASS 2.1

Dear GRASS Community,

the development is going on... time for a new GRASS Version...
Also the web-server is restructured to avoid confusion.

What is new:

- TclTKGRASS with new modules and some improvements
- r.tiff: Changes for TIFF - library management (thanks to Marco Valagussa)
           now the libtiff of the system is used.
- RIM/GRASS interface working now
        - src.related/rim - DBMS updated (thanks to Marco Valagussa!!)
        - src.garden/grass.rim (slight changes)
        - src.garden/grass.rim.new added (lot of changes, not yet in working
                                          condition)
- d.3d (src/display): added missing color=color parameter for
                           command line usage (important for TclTKGRASS)
- LTPlus (src.related): corrections in LIBRULE management.
                            package should be compilable now...

Where to get it:
  
  http://www.laum.uni-hannover.de/iln/grass/grass42/
  http://blue.lakeheadu.ca/grass/ (Thanks to Angus Carr for web space!)
  ftp://hgeo02.geog.uni-hannover.de/pub/grass421/

You can get an update package for the source code there.
Splitted packages are available at the FTP-server.

Have fun

Dear Dr. Neteler,

Could you inform me wherefrom can I down load spearfish data for running
the tutorial for grass. I am finding it difficult to use it inspite of
reading your good tutorila book.

Further, If you know a mirror site of grass providing REST command of ftp
please inform me. I am not able to download latest grass due to continuous
one time connectivity problem here.

thanks in advance for the help.
