[Qgis-developer] DXF Import

[Andreas Neumann]

 Hi Patrice,

 Are you aware that OGR has improved a lot in the past regarding DXF? 
 QGIS has to follow up in separating the geometry types, supporting OGR 
 feature styles, supporting blocks, etc. It is possible.

 Would you (or your employer or client) be able to sponsor this effort 
 or join the financing? We are soon meeting in Switzerland and will be 
 discussing the dxf issue. It is important for us as well. But my 
 employer already paid quite a bit for the OGR improvements. It would be 
 nice if someone else would step in for the QGIS part, financially. I 
 also know that the city of Thun would also be interested.

 Andreas
