[QGIS-Developer] Globe Plugin

[Marco Bernasocchi]

As one of the grandfathers of the original Globe plugin, I'd say ditch
it - BUT... let's see what Matthias,  Martin and  Sandro think since
they probably are the ones that are most up-to-date on can now be done
with the 3d map canvas and globe

Cheers
