[Qgis-psc] Fwd: Windows only version of a QGIS 2.18x plugin

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi Paolo,

That's my perception as well, we welcome every (open) plugin but
encourage multi-platform ones. From my point of view it does not need a
formal vote but it would be nice to have a statement, can you do that?

Thanks a lot!

Matthias
