[QGIS-Developer] Converting plugins to QGIS 3

[Luigi Pirelli]

this is a slide about plugin porting I'll be presenting to the next
spanish foss4g:
http://slides.com/luigipirelli/desdarrolloplugindeqgis-xi-girona#/17
sorry it's in spanish

about

from PyQt4 import QtGui

or

from PyQt4.QtGui import QDialog

I would prefer the second so to avoid to postpone lib version errors
at pyc time and not at runtime.
it make it simpler to mock or alias a class globally if you need

regards
Luigi Pirelli
