[Qgis-developer] Georeferencing in QGIS: need a patch for 0.8.1

[Sebastian Schmitz]

Marco, devs,

Anyone know who fixed that bug in the georeferencing plugin? There is 
funding available for backporting that fix to 0.8.1. We have a deadline 
in 3,5 weeks and qgis 0.9 will only be out after that. Additionally, we 
got this running in a KNOPPIX environment after all and we want to stick 
with 0.8.1 as it was some hassle getting that done in the first place.

Cheers.

Sebastian
