1. Removing openlayers plugin from the repo asap. This plugin is broken and unfortunately is harming the reputation of the project, as many users cannot distinguish the difference between the plugin's issues and problems with QGIS itself (eg see <a href="https://twitter.com/thatkindofplace/status/742543174573260800?s=03" target="_blank" class="">https://twitter.com/thatkindofplace/status/742543174573260800?s=03</a> )</p><p dir="ltr" class="">2. Rename QuickMapServices as "QuickMapServices (OpenLayers replacement)" on the plugin repo, so users looking for openlayers are nicely directed to the new plugin</p></blockquote><div class=""><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">+1 for all the reasons above.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br class=""></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Thanks for reviving this Nyall!</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br class=""></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Best wishes,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Anita</div><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-top: 2.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div></blockquote></div></div><div class=""><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><pre class="">Qgis-developer mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank" class="">Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org</a><br class="">List info: <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer" target="_blank" class="">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a><br class="">Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer" target="_blank" class="">http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer</a></pre></blockquote></div></div><div class=""><br class="">
