Hi, If the developers dealing with bugs think that the data of a crash-reporter is useful for debugging I would also think it is good idea to include a crash reporter. In Autodesk software there are crash reports. Depending on the patterns, users even get a message that the problem got fixed

Hi, If we do collect data, we should clearly inform the users about this data collection (and what data is stored) - and add an option to opt out from this data collection. It is hard to build trust, but easy to loose trust. Of course I would also be curious about the stats ;-) Andreas Am

Hi victor, i agree with you. I do prefer to use sextante also for basic operations already present in qgis menu. It seems to me it is faster and i more appreciate temporary results instead of the duty of creating definitive layers. I don't know if it is correct, but could it be possible to

Hi! Although I have to say that I'd like to have an easy install, I am against including everything in the installer .. Wouldn't it be possible to just write something like an automated downloader and Installer.. Something that asks: Would you like to download and install also SAGA? Probably that

Thanks for the feedback I agree that it is better to keep things separate, but at the same time, the easier it is to have it all installed, the better for the final user. I am planning to improve the checkings that are performed before an external algorithm is run, not just to check if the

It seems very strange coming from OpenBSD to split packages. In OpenBSD packages are bundled together as far as possible which makes sense (less hassle to maintain). IMHO, the plugins and functionality which is thought to be core, should be included in a default install. But not for something

Mac might be the biggest problem here. On Mac, SAGA should be distributed and installed as a normal OS X framework, the way GDAL and PROJ are done. Mac users already download and install the GDAL Complete.dmg package separately in order to run QGIS, so doing the same with a SAGA.dmg package
