[Qgis-user] Export Qgis project to openlayers plugin?

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Morten,

I still don't understand what is missing for you?

QGIS Server is a WMS and WFS server. OpenLayers can consume WMS and WFS. 
What are you missing? Everything is there for you to integrate. There is 
even a plugin (QTiles) than can export tile structures so you don't need 
to install QGIS server: http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/qtiles/

QGIS cloud is using QGIS web client (a slightly different version) - it 
also uses QGIS server and and a Python plugins. Everything in QGIS cloud 
is open source. Non-commercial maps are free, for commercial services 
they charge. I think is ok. After all they have to rent a server, 
install and configure everything, etc. It is normal that you pay for a 
web server.

Hope this helps,
Andreas
