FW: [Qgis-user] DEM matching to points - how to load plugins in windows

[M.E.Dodd]

Thanks for the responses on how to match to points, however they raised a second problem which might be a bug in qgis or at least need a work around.  That is, when I tried to find 'point sampling tool' it was not there and when I tried to install it the repository was unavailable and when I tried a manual download and install it would not work, see some details of correspondence about this below.

yes, or maybe windows? Best you test/ask for proxies and ask again on the ml,
because I use qgis 1.3 on linux so probably cannot not reproduce.

sorry
