[Qgis-developer] Bug in Georeferencer Helmert 0.8.1

[Sebastian Schmitz]

Hi,

we seek (commercial) QGIS support for this considerably urgent issue (3 
week deadline) concerning georeferencing in QGIS (ie Helmert 
Transformation on Gauß-Krüger2 coordinates). Find below a thread from 
qgis-dev.
The bug is fixed in 0.9, but svn commits in georeferencer plugin do not 
reveal where that happened or who has done that. Tim Suttons explained

Is anybody able to offer the service of extracting the bug fix from 0.9 
and backporting it to a patch for 0.8.1? If so, please do swiftly.

Cheers

Sebastian
