Hi Andreas,

I attended the presentations about MapStore2 in Bonn.

I think it has a lot of potential, both as a shared web client project 
usable by QGIS(server) and Geoserver, and as a genuinly open source 
project for a generic webclient based on modern technologies.
Also the fact that (hopefully) QGISserver could be used as printserver 
is pretty cool.

So I would welcome the project in the QGIS Github repo, and I think and 
hope that sourcepole can ignite this project to become a success.
