Hi René, Thank to everyone participating in this. >* Who is interested in participating in QGIS Server (code, ideas, review, tests) ? I am also interested in helping out with the effort. All the best, Tudor

As explain on the Pull Request 'Require python 3 and qt5', all the QGIS Server tests has been disabled. This means that QGIS Server is not maintained with automatic tests for QGIS 3. So Mathias Khun has opened an issue about QGIS 3 API to remove QGIS Server from QGIS master. https://github.com/qgis/qgis3.0_api/issues/63 The discussion is opened but I don't know if all the developpers are aware of this. For our team, 3Liz (Michaël, David and I), the QGIS Server is a big part of the QGIS project and it will really be a pitty if it disappears. A part of the QGIS users are interesting in it because they can published web services directly from their work. So QGIS Server is a reason for them to use QGIS. Many users like the part of using QGIS desktop to configure easily many options for publication, and use WMS, WFS, WCS and event WPS with different clients (one of them is Lizmap). We take much time (and about half of it without funds) to keep this feature alive and up to date with QGIS improvements, and are willing to continue down this path (we believe in it and have many good feedbacks from users) We would like to raise interest around QGIS Server, and report here that this part of QGIS is really used in production by companies and research centers, and maintained by some devs, and not just a QGIS side project "for fun". We just discussed with Alessandro Pasotti and we would like to create a team to maintain and discuss about the evolution of QGIS Server. We would like to use this opportunity to improve QGIS Server and make it more maintainable and granular. Some questions to gather reactions : * Who is interested in maintaining QGIS Server ? * Who is interested in participating in QGIS Server (code, ideas, review, tests) ? * Please share any ideas to enhance (refactor) QGIS Server Regards, René-Luc D'Hont _______________________________________________ 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
