Hi, I have been wondering recently about the status of original fTools and GdalTools plugins and their algorithms in SEXTANTE. As far as I understand, the implementation in SEXTANTE is independent from the original plugins. That means that any changes in fTools or GdalTools have to be ported manually to SEXTANTE (and vice versa). Also the users must be confused by having two completely different ways how to trigger the same algorithms. Maintaining both versions will be painful for us and our users.
The port of original algorithms to SEXTANTE seems to be nearly complete and SEXTANTE has superior approach of creating the GUI for algorithms dynamically (similar to GRASS toolbox) instead of manually creating GUI for each algorithm. So...what about removing the original fTools and GdalTools plugins before 2.0 and focusing on improvements of their counterparts in SEXTANTE?
