[QGIS-Developer] [server] Status and Roadmap

[Paolo Cavallini]

Great news, merci Régis.
IMHO it is not important to set priorities: both standards and
performances are important, for different reasons, and implementing one
will not interfere with the other - just different actors will be involved.
I'm sure both will receive higher support from PSC and QGIS community as
a whole, especially power users.
All the best.
