Hi,
do you think the script v.db.calc (now in the addon svn) is mature to be included into the next grass release?
Does anyone used it, what is the feeling?
I use it quite a lot in my courses and I would like to have it on regular release, so that students can use it in the future without the "pain" of installing it

I cannot tell you because I didn't know about this module. Anyway I
would suggest to you to rewrite it using grass Python module [1]

Apart from the effort, rewriting it would make it more difficult to
integrate it in qgis, so I would vote for the inclusion as it stands.
Including it wil allow wider and deeper testing.
All the best.

Never knew of its existence (not referenced at
http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_AddOns) !
I think that with the move in 6.4 to SQLite as default db backend, this
won't be as necessary as before, so not sure if we really need it in the
main source tree...
Maybe you could "ease" installation by making it installable via gem ?

I guess modules which don't use grass Python module will be in the
harder position to be integrated into trunk (grass7).

Oh, you may be right: it shouldn't be harder, but until now no py grass
module has been included in the qgis grass toolbox.
Maybe I should try. Any suggestion as to where to start (which module)?
All the best.
