Hi Marco, i would like to help maintaining the grass plugin in qgis. But unfortunately i am not able to start right now. I am much to busy. I hope to start working on it in the 2. quater of 2010.
I have curently little experience with qgis. I did not use it very often. But i am a C/C++ and Python developer with some Qt experience and have had a look on the grass-plugin sources. :) Best regards Soeren 2009/12/5 Marco Hugentobler <ma...@hugis.net>: > Dear GRASS devs > > I'm writing to you as the technical advisor of the QGIS project steering > committee.
