Thanks for offering your help I really appreciate it and I am overwhelmed by the amount of people trying to help to establish a stable (let's say "not such at the bleeding edge") QGIS. The Idea of testing 1.7.4 after the full release will definitely help to find more bugs! I am sure it will be useable for a possible 1.7.5 or 1.8 .. > We would need a page in the wiki to make a list of the tests that each > user is able to do, and the the results.

As long as all found bugs are reported in the bugtracker (and reported correctly with affected version and target version) it should be more or less easy to write such a file.. Feel free to create such a wiki page and I will surely upload the summarized text to the Download page connected to the affected version. I'll expect having a 1.7.4 released in about 3 weeks .. It seems that there is some space for a "stable" release for people not wanting to dance on the bleeding edge ;) I cannot promise to make the 1.7.x releases more "stable" but at least they will have a lot of fixes and improvements.. So thanks again for offering your help - I hope we can somehow establish that "more formal and organized way" to provide the releases.. kind regards Werner signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Create an empty spatial database 2. Connect and use the Upload Tables tab under which you can pick CSV as the source. Alternative method, download the spatialite gui from spatialite website and use that to import the csv. Once imported QGIS will be able to see it, though you may need to create a geometry column and run an update query to populate it.

Re: [Qgis-user] value tool plugin in 2 repos
Then, what I understand from your message is that QGIS Official Repository http://pyqgis.org/repo/official and QGIS Contributed Repository http://pyqgis.org/repo/contributed both become merged in the new official QGIS New Official Repository http://plugins.qgis.org and the distinction between contributed and official will no longer exist (obviously individual repos maintained by some authors will always be there as well). The text in http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/Python_Plugin_Repositories made me think that QGIS Contributed Repository http://pyqgis.org/repo/contributed was going to remain active.

Hi Agus, the pyqgis.org repository is the 'old official repo', used by older version of QGIS. the plugins.qgis.org is the 'new official repo', which is the default repo in current master (and 1.8 ?). You can even add th 'new repo' as a repo in older QGIS version, and the two will then just be merged, giving you just the newest version of a given plugin from both official repo's. We could not get in touch anymore with the original Valuetool plugin author, so I adopted and added On The Fly projection in the last version 0.3.4.

[Qgis-user] Re: [Qgis-developer] knock knock - 1.7.4 is outside
Werner, Some users (including myself) offered themselves to carry out some testing of the new releases in order to at least write a list of the most important "Known Problems". Perhaps we can do it for 1.7.4, once the binaries are released, as a first experiment. Afterwards we can decide on more formal and organized ways of doing this. By now the idea would be that each tester would test those tools that he/she uses the most and/or are most critical for his work. We would need a page in the wiki to make a list of the tests that each user is able to do, and the the results. After a week or so we could summarize a text to be distributed in the Download page.
