Yes, I know and I apologize for raising the question again. But I'm
trying to get the planners/developers of QGIS to actually
let us know their thoughts on this issue, and even get that in the web
page so that this problem does not become a recurring question. Any new
comer to QGIS
will ask him/herself how to read these formats with QGIS and will ask to
this list unless there is a clear statement somewhere.
