[Qgis-developer] the feature freeze bug report

[Giovanni Manghi]

Hi all,

as feature freeze deadline has passed here it comes a resume of the
bug situation. A few of them are awaiting feedback and maybe can be
closed, but most of them are still valid.



*) there are 90 bugs classified as blockers

http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/issues?query_id=23

that's it, are all regressions or new features added along the last
year that do not work at all or do not work as they should be.

a few of them are also (awaiting) in github pull request queue




Regarding the switch from old labelling/symbology to the new engine,
the page is *almost* obsolete, but not quite yet

http://hub.qgis.org/wiki/quantum-gis/Switching_from_Old_to_New_Symbology_and_Labeling

beside missing a real color randomizer there is a big issue with
labels not being saved in qgis styles

http://hub.qgis.org/issues/7134

and another 2/3 styling options that were available in the old
symbology that are not in the new one
