[Qgis-psc] Future of the QGIS-Processing repository

Hi PSC,

We have QGIS-Processing repository with user-contributed Processing scrips and
models. This repository was created to provide users with central
place to share their algorithms. At the moment it contains scripts and
models for QGIS 2.x.

As you may know, with API break and Processing overhaul in QGIS 3 old scripts
and models, developed for QGIS 2 became incompatible with QGIS 3. But as
QGIS 2.x will continue to live along with QGIS 3 for a while it is necessary to
separate old stuff from new stuff.

I propose to move QGIS 2.x stuff to the separate branch, for example
"qgis-2" and use master branch for QGIS 3 stuff. And of course, send
an email to users list about this change.

Another option is to drop this repository completely. It is not
actively maintained,
users need to wait until someone merged theirs pull-requests, some users open
tickets agains contributed stuff and wait us to fix these bugs etc.  IMHO much
better to use Resource Sharing plugin to work with contributed algorithms.

Opinions?
