I have decided to implement the GRASS functionality needed by garp in web
services because of the difficulty in getting grass to work on multiple
platforms.  I have created web services for the following grass functions:
s.in.ascii, s.info, r.in.arc, r.info, s.hull, v.info, v.support, v.to.rast,
r.mapcal, r.out.arc.  I have produced a shell script which makes use of these
services to correctly clip a convex hull as described by Town at the SEV
meeting.  I now need to implement this as a workflow in kepler, but I am waiting
for the web service actor to be extended to allow for the returning of objects.  

The web services are currently running on trestles and the wsdl is available at
http://trestles.nceas.ucsb.edu:8004/seek/grass.wsdl.  I am running the services
on the GLUE server, but could switch over to AXIS if needed.
