Hi Yves and Régis,

Just as a short note regarding PNG encoding in QGIS server:

The City of Uster would be willing to finance this, but they need a clear plan and some guarantee that there actually will be a sensible performance improvement. They can't just sponsor on the outlook that it may or may not be an improvement (meaning they can't fund general research were the outcome is uncertain).

Andreas Vonlaufen would be the contact in uster. Andreas knows about the project but apparently the contract wasn't agreed upon yet, as the outcome of the proposal was too uncertain for the City of Uster.

Hi all,  
After getting in sync with 3liz, here is a proposal of task :
C2C:  1 K€ for making automatic reports with the performance benchmark platform
3Liz:   6 K€ for GetPrint refactor, and some new feature (WFS 1.1.0 and some caching improvements)
OSLANDIA : 6 K€ for OGC unconformity checks and fixes
Yves, can you please react upon, that if you have plans to work on png encoder improvements?
