[udig-devel] shp to GML (fwtools)

[Aurora Geomatics]

Nod,

I had just read somewhere that OpenJUMP and UDIG were working  
together now,
and I remember OpenJUMP having this (limited) ability.

ogr2ogr does a good job.

I have opted for the QGIS/GRASS tools, for now.

I like the portability and direction UDIG is going though,
As a resource for savvy and not so savvy GIS users.

I'll keep watching.

Cheers,

Mars
