<p>a general comment on</p>
<p>
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">“All references to
files will be saved as absolute paths “</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">why does things
have
to be absolute path especially if you eventually will design for
Geopackage that is suppose to simplify portability</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">can the Path not be
divided into two separate names </p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">1) one that is
easily changed like a computer home directory which changes
depending
on computer used</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">2) project and all
of its sub-directories that should not change</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">this is always a
huge issue with us since we work a lot in areas with very poor or
no
internet connection thus projects have to be loaded on our
personal
computers or external hardrives.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">also when you give
a
session to a client you always have to go into the project file
and
change the directory names. </p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">QGIS is not the
only
program that has this issue and i never quite understood why it
was
done this way maybe there is a explanation besides its simpler for
programers. <br>

<p style="margin-bottom:0cm;line-height:100%">thanks</p>

<pre>Hi everyone
Here is a new proposal to add support for storage of QGIS projects
inside PostgreSQL (and possibly in other backends in the future):

Any comments would be highly appreciated!
