[Qgis-user] QGIS Users Gallery

[Noli Sicad]

Hi Otto,

Yes, I will be happy to do it.

We will categorize what we are going to place in the Gallery. We can
specify what platform it is implemented (e.g. Windows, Mac OS X, Linux
(Ubuntu), etc.)

A. Screenshots

B. Blogs

C. Plugin Tutorials

(I will request all plugins developers to create a short tutorial with
screenshots, so we can properly use these plugins)

D. Applications
    1. Argiculture
    2. Forestry
    3. Environment
    4. Energy

E. Request for Features
     1. Project  - amount willing to pay for the feature to be developed.
     2.

F. Suggestions.

G. Others.

We really need to promote Qgis so we generate some interests. And
then, local government , organisation will sponsor some of the
development.

For example, UN Habitat QGIS project request. This institute is
willing to fund the development.

Regards,

Noli
