Hi Victor,
I've just given a rapid look to the GGL2 site and docs. If I understand it
correctly, GGL2 will run in its own process, and the Qgis plugin will be
the intermediary to expose QGis to GGL2 (through socket communication) as a
"GIS provider".
The GGL2 commands will run on GGL2 which will be able to reference the
layers (and the drawing) on QGis through the plugin. Right?
