Subject: [QGIS-Developer] A good task for someone wanting to get involved --
update CPT ramps

Hi all,

Here's an idea for a good task for someone wanting to get involved in QGIS
contributions which doesn't require any c++/python.

Currently we package a subset of the CPT ramps archive in QGIS, which you
can see here
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/tree/master/resources/cpt-city-qgis-min

It's missing a lot of the ramps present in the current version of the CPT
archive from http://soliton.vm.bytemark.co.uk/pub/cpt-city/ . Some of these
are because the licenses won't permit bundling with QGIS (e.g. the ESRI
sets), but others are just missing because we haven't updated our subset in
a loooooooooong time. (E.g. compare the subset present in QGIS
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/tree/master/resources/cpt-city-qgis-min/gmt
from the GMT set vs
http://soliton.vm.bytemark.co.uk/pub/cpt-city/gmt/index.html )

It would be great to update our subset and re-sync it with the upstream
collection. We're missing a lot of nice ramps we could be bundling by
default :)

I'm happy to mentor this task if someone wants to give it a shot...

Nyall
