[Qgis-developer] Sextante: add QGIS backend?

[Marco Hugentobler]

Hi all

Would it be possible to include the native QGIS algorithms to sextante 
via Python bindings of the analysis lib (adding sip files where they are 
missing)?

This is a good idea. That way (c++), other plugins could use the core 
sextante functions, e.g. to automatically define process chains.

Regards,
Marco
