While I think that is a good idea in general. I don't, personally, think it applies in this case.
- Vector Layer Generalization for QGIS From what I understand of the proposal, it will be a more lower level core QGIS thing. Implemented at the rendering/fetching level into to speed up vector layer drawing. Not really a post process step. -QGIS tool for vector data merging This should be more core IMO too. While I love SEXTANTE, and what is being done with it, I don't think this is analysis per sa. IMO it would be implemented in core C++ and have a public API in order to wrap it into a SEXTANTE plugin in Python. As QGIS already has a semi-decent merge tool I don't see this proposal as a lot of work - mainly merging of objects might be a problem. - Nathan On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 8:41 PM, Victor Olaya <vola...@gmail.com> wrote: > One question/suggestion: is it possible to have some kind of > link/coordination between GSoC projects?
