[Qgis-developer] Feature freeze for 1.8 - 31 March 23h59 GMT 2012

[Duarte Carreira]

Call it "Lisboa".

Here's a good Picture: http://images.wikia.com/artepedia/pt/images/7/7b/Rosa-dos-Ventos-do-Padrao-dos-Descobrimentos.jpg

I am not aware of any trademark with the name of the capital...I think it's not possible to register(??)

There is the nearest thing with Lisbon in its name and GIS related ->

http://www.wipo.int/lisbon/en/

And there is some nice historical map which would be great (moons are gone, old maps are the new trend) ->
