QGIS hackfest 2014 (Vienna)
28.03.2014 18:35 · Notes · qgis, meetings
The 11th QGIS developers meeting, held in Vienna (Austria), has finished. This time, the hackfest took place under the umbrella of a larger developer meeting — OSGeo Code Sprint 2014.
The activity of the participants was at a traditionally high level, and there is no sense or possibility to describe everything. Among the most notable things from an end-user prospective are:
- bug hunting in Processing (Anita Graser and myself)
- updated plugins repository (Alessandro Pasotti)
- Paolo Cavallini was busy with checking and approving piles of submitted plugins
- updated user manual (Larissa Junek and Otto Dassau)
There were also discussions about:
- procedures for creating regional QGIS user groups
- another stage of refactoring (this time it was about the layer tree or ToC, Table of Contents)
- user interface improvements
- translation process for documentation and user interface (Transifex vs. Qt Linguist/GitHub)
- integration of the MetaSearch plugin into the core
