> Hi all (especially Marco),

> I know it's quite late now because of coming 1.0 release, but I'd like
> to propose removal of QgsLine class. The reasons:
> - there's no code in source tree that would make use of it
> - there's no python binding so python plugins surely don't use it
> - it's making impression it can be of some use, but in fact it's a
> dummy class supporting only comparison with other QgsLine
> - it's stating it's a line, however I guess it should be called line
> segment instead to avoid confusion
> - I have already a prototype of a line segment class which could have
> (expected) functionality (e.g. find out closest point, return tangent,
> angle ...) that might be added in 1.x release
