    <p>Hi all</p>
    <p>well we had the very same thoughts recently concerning the QWC2
      suite which deserves to be listed as part of the QGIS ecosystem,
      and as a community driven project. It is already hosted in the
      github QGIS organisation, but is only mentionned in the mailing
      list's page [0]</p>
    <p>This deserves to be documented in a dedicated page for web
      clients in the website. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Any objection to add one?</p>
    <p>Regards, <br>
    </p>

                      worked on for a long time. We would like to
                      encourage other projects (such as "Input" and
                      "QGIS Roam" to do the same, if there aren't any
