<div class="Normal"><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>Very nice article! The
So!GIS Layer Metadata database plugin seems
to</span><br><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>be a good interface for managing

for</span><br><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>non-GIS users. Would Canton of

The first QGIS Case Study about "QGIS in the governmental FOSSGIS stack of
the</span><br><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>> Canton of Solothurn in
Switzerland" was contributed by Horst Düster. Thank
you</span><br><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>> very much Horst to be the
first!</span><br><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>></span><br><span style='font-size: 10pt; '>>
