[announce] released the first version of GtkGis

[Andrea Zagli <azagli inwind it>]

GtkGis is a widget for Gtk+ to embed basic GIS functionalities  
(viewing maps, pan, zoom, etc.) inside Gtk+ programs

GtkGis requires GooCanvas[1] and Gdal[2]

this first version is a release only for the announce, beacause the  
only thing that you can do is load shape files base on point or lines  
or polygons, without the possibility to influence the result displayed

yet the project site is http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtkgis/


PS: not, it doesn't want to be a clone of the others desktop gis like  
qgis, gvsig, etc.
