Hi Nyall+, all, this is a very good and timely idea, and I fully support it. I regularly suggest all new suitable plugin writers to move their plugin as a Processing subplugin. The weak point I see is how to evaluate which plugins can and cannot become a Processing subplugin. Perhaps we could have a look and see how easy the classification is? The more grey areas the more difficult will be to implement this. Maybe we can meet on IRC and see how it goes on a sample of plugins? Obviously, clear and sleek documentation, featuring prominently is one of the keys here. You'll be surprised knowing how many plugin authors started a new one just because they didn't know the same function was available elsewhere. Thanks Victor for your offer of help. I think this is the second key for the success of this initiative. Obviously I'm available to help here. All the best. -- Paolo Cavallini - www.faunalia.eu QGIS & PostGIS courses: http://www.faunalia.eu/training.html _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
