[Gvsig_english] copying shape file layers

[Benjamin Ducke]

Having been part of several GIS development
teams in the past, and having trained people with
a diversity of educational backgrounds, skills and
job requirements on GIS, I have often seen these
kinds of problems. GIS terminology seems counter-intuitive
some times and it is also not consistently applied
across all GIS (just take a look at what different
GIS apps make of terms like "projection" or "coordinate
system", as opposed to their textbook definitions in
Geodesy).
