[Qgis-user] Congratulations to all :-)

I strongly agree as well. Three years ago I included QGIS in a
presentation that I gave here in Winnipeg of FOSSG and users were
lukewarm about it.

This past Friday I made a presentation on QGIS and its Georeferencer
plugin at the local GIS users group meeting, and although there was only
one other QGIS user in the meeting of over 100 people, the users at the
meeting were quite impressed with it. I expect that the user base will
grow rapidly now that all the development has been done on it.

My thanks to all of the developers who make and maintain this excellent
software.

People,

sometimes I look at QGIS and wonder if it's real. All of these changes
and new stuff that were introduced the last months make me think that I
am dreaming :-p

Congratulations and thank you all. If QGIS grows at the same pace, I
can't imagine which other platform can beat it with respect to
user-friendliness, simplicity and interoperability.

One general desire though: please try to keep the menu(s) grouped, in an
easy and practical way. Right now, in the unstable version, loading many
(or all possible) plugins gives a bit of a confusing impression.

* The drop-down menus Raster (=gdal), Click-Fu, SDA-4PP and SelectPlus
are right after the Help menu.

* The Plugins are really too many just to keep them alphabetically
ordered. IMHO, a thematic sorting is mandatory.

And an extra-idea: since many-many times people wonder how to cite a
tool, why not give the proper citing in an extra tab within the "About"
dialog (or similar)?

Again, thanks :-)
Nikos
