[Qgis-psc] Requesting support for WFS compliance from OSGeo

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Anita,

Thanks for investigating. I have three ideas how to spend OSGeo funds:

1. How about a funding for the MacOS builds? Filling the gap from the 
crowd funding initiative? See 
https://www.lutraconsulting.co.uk/crowdfunding/macos-qgis/ - the 
campaign runs until end of January - but if the target is not met, it 
would be nice if OSGeo could cover the rest.

2. Another idea is investing into potential performance improvements in 
QGIS server. Profiling where most of the time is spent and where there 
is potential for improvement.

3. Helping to fund a potential github to gitlab migration (if this is 
feasible and wanted by the core devs) or Redmine to Github/Gitlab issues 
(if it is wanted by the core devs).

What do you think?

Thanks and greetings,

Andreas
