<br>
I see the SAP HANA provider being submitted as a pull request. In<br>
<a href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/151#issuecomment-530924946" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/151#issuecomment-530924946</a> ,<br>
it was rightly suggested they consider becoming a QGIS sustaining member.<br>
Did they follow up on this "advice" ?<br>
I don't see them mentioned in <a href="https://www.qgis.org/en/site/about/sustaining_members.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.qgis.org/en/site/about/sustaining_members.html</a><br>
Given SAP size, they would pretty much qualify for a Flagship level which isn't used yet :-)<br>
<br>
The motivation given in <a href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/34988" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/34988</a> clearly shows<br>
that SAP HANA support in QGIS is mostly a convenience for SAP customers (and customers=money,<br>
so the QGIS project getting a tiny part of that money seems appropriate):<br>
"SAP's customer base is in quite some demand for HANA support in QGIS. Most of those<br>
customers are already using QGIS, mostly with PostGIS, Oracle and/or MSSQL. They expect<br>
that they can work with HANA in QGIS in the same way they work with these databases."<br>
