[QGIS-Developer] QGIS-Developer Digest, Vol 221, Issue 27

Hola Julien,

Your remark makes sense. I'll continue taking screenshots on Windows,
that's not a problem. As for using QGIS on Nix, it seems very good to me
for now, and I generally like the environment. In any case, I'll continue
to make screenshots that are suitable for average QGIS users, and I will
continue my work on Windows while simultaneously testing the Nix
environment. Thanks for your feedback.

Regards,
Selma.
