[Qgis-community-team] Materialised / Rule based views

[Tim Sutton]

Hi

I (or whoever wrote it) could probably have chosen a better example. Materialised views change something that is normally read only (a view) into something that can be treated as a writable table (with the correct transactions being deferred to the tables that were used to create the view). So agreed we should either change the example or the heading :-)

Regards

Tim
