thanks, I'm waiting your test result.

Of course, after SL provider the next one is OGR. I think I'll complete both

tasks in the next few days.
The GSoC coding period is going to end this week and I want complete
that feature before the pencil down date.

One more thing to consider for the importLayer

QgsVectorFileWriter also takes other parameters i.e. creationOptions and
layerOptions, both QStringList.

Probably a QMap<QString, QStringList> could be a better choise to handle
with all them.
Do you agree with me?
