Actually almost all fTools algoritms already available via Processing, only few are "missed". This "missed" algs now also ported, but not commited into master because of feature freeze. > # Performance issue > > The Python code could be improved to get better performance.

Just remebered that some fTools algorithms were ported to C++ by Carson Farmer (original fTools author) several years ago. One can find this algorithms in QGIS analysis library, look at QgsOverlayAnalyzer [0] and QgsGeometryAnalyzer [1]. Maybe it is better to update this code instead of writing new one. > # Missing features > > This is not a technology problem, just need some love from someone.

Though? As I said, almost all fTools functionality already available and missed algorithms are ready to merge. Regarding fTools (and maybe GDAL Tools) removal, I think we need to wait until Processing can completely replace this plugins.
