[Qgis-psc] QGIS Resource Sharing Plugin in core?

[Nathan Woodrow]

IMO I think it has less to do with it being a core feature or not, which it
should be in the end.  More that it was opened and merged within a short
time frame, while there was still pending comments about ext-libs, who will
maintain it etc.

We are good with having that feature. It's a good feature and needed, but I
think things going into core now need to be integrated more e.g if it's
core it's not a plugin.

I'm also not keen on a discussion with valid concerning points being called
"nonsense".  None of those comments were personal attacks, all were based
on valid concerns from other developers.

Yes, we are a community but drop and forget doesn't scale well.
