DSpatial 0.3.2 and gridmath and terra modules

Hello DSpatial developers,

After a long, hard slog, version 0.3.2 of the DSpatial kernel was released 
on Sourceforge today. While minor in versioning, there are some dramatic 
improvements and extensions to the kernel. These changes made an update of 
other downloads necessary as well, so the HDF driver and the gridmath module 
also have a new release available. In addition, there is a new module, 
terra, with four operations to derive surface-related parameters from 
Digital Elevation Models. Everyone is advised to start using these new 
releases and discard older code.

Documentation of DSpatial and the associated modules are *still* sorely 
lacking. Especially needed right now are detailed documents on programming 
with the DSpatial kernel and the extension modules, and on how to develop 
additional raster drivers. Since nobody stepped forward to take on this 
task, the main developer will now lay creative development to a temporary 
rest and focus on documenting what is there already.

Which is not to say that all is lost, because with the new DSpModuleBase 
facilities writing new analytical procedures is a snap. If you think you 
have a fantastic algorithm waiting to be included in DSpatial you should 
take a look at the DSpTSurface unit to see how things might be organized. 
Have fun.

Thanks,
DSpatial development team
