Good day to all

I wish to record my overwhelming gratitude to this software project as I have been a user of this software QGIS over the past 8 years since version 1.8. During that period I have been working on developing historical hobby maps covering a large part of the country of New Zealand and making extensive use of freely downloadable map resources which are available there.

I have just completed the first volume of a series, containing just over 1000 individual maps which are published online for free access. Each of those maps has to be individually generated and checked from the layout composer. There are still another 11 volumes of a similar size to be produced in the series which should take roughly 11 months (for the rest of this year).

None of this could have been achieved without the use of the Qgis software and I must especially record my appreciation that it is free software as this project could not have happened at all a few years ago considering the large volume of resources involved and the expense all round that would have been incurred given the commercial value of all the resources (my personal income at present being less than NZ$20,000 pa).

It has been of considerable personal regret to me that a certain level of conflict did arise during the period that I was using the 2.99 development edition of the software and I hope it will be possible for developers to accept this apology for those situations. Unfortunately I do not have the time these days to run the development edition for testing and have yet to master the new bug reporting system so you have not heard from me in a while anyways.
