r.proj - new script for re-projecting raster-maps

Dear Kang

From your description, I'm not sure that we _are_ talking about the same thing:

1. My script works on cell-maps, not vectors or sites. It uses a
site list at an intermediate stage, since we need a list of cell
positions in the target location, at which the source map must be
sampled. I don't understand where v.proj would come in?

2. Using i.rectify is WRONG. Rectification is different to re-projection.
THe latter is controlled by a set of mathematical equations based on the
functions that define the projections. Rectification, on the other hand,
is a statistically derived, arbitrary "warp" which is useful for taking
out arbitrary distortions which might have been introduced during (say)
photographic processing. The results may not look too different at a glance,
but there is no guarantee of accuracy using rectification, whereas ther is with
projection.

This will either incite a "hear-hear", or a flame from Gerry Evenden, I guess!
