Re: [Qgis-user] [Qgis-developer] Defining the SEXTANTE roadmap

Hi all

Thanks a lot for your ideas, there are definitely very good ones in here.

I am going to try to put a detailed list of priorities and maybe some
time estimations, so we can then focus our work more efficiently.

As some of you mentioned that you have plans to work on these
ideas,since they are of interest for you company/work/etc, (this is a
great surprise!), I would just like to ask for some communication here
in the list, so as to avoid duplicate work. For instance, support for
databases as inputs and outputs was already on my priorities list. A
good roadmap will help us divide the work and advance faster.

I cannot thank you all enough for you help. It is really exciting to
see how people are using SEXTANTE and helping us to push it forward.

Thanks!

 Hi Victor, hi all,

 Let's start with the second point How do you think we should spend
 this money on SEXTANTE?


 I think the first point is to fixed bugs, the second like Vincent Picavet is
 Making sextante totally independant of qgis GUI, to be able to run sextante
 processes in batch in command line mode.

 We, at 3Liz, could spend some time on SEXTANTE and find fund to improve
 SEXTANTE. Some of our clients, mainly labs, can be insteresting in improving
 SEXTANTE in QGIS, SEXTANTE has a command line or SEXTANTE as a WPS Server.

Hi Victor, hi all,

 Let's start with the second point How do you think we should spend
 this money on SEXTANTE?

At Oslandia our priorities for Sextante are :
* PostGIS and spatialite support for sextante, as intermediary layers and 
parameterized queries as processes, with import/export processes too.
* add a bunch of postgis/spatialite classical processes (nearest neigbours, 
deduplication, spatial join, shortest path...)
* Making sextante totally independant of qgis GUI, to be able to run sextante 
processes in batch in command line mode

This will open the door to use Sextante as a real WPS processes generator, 
with features not unlike an ETL (or ELT).

We will try to spend some internally funded RD time on the PostGIS support, 
probably early 2013.
Apart from the RD time we'll spend, we'll have resources for paid work if 
these topics are of interest, or on related topics with sextante.

But meanwhile, the most important is probably what everybody underlined : 
consolidation. Bugfixing, qgis integration (in menus), documentation should be 
the top priorities.

That's all for my christmas list :)
