[SriLanka] QGIS plugins developed for the Survey Department of Sri Lanka

[Niroshan Sanjaya]

Dear Prabhath,

It is pleasure to hear about the QGIS plugins that you have developed as
Parcel Checker, Extent checker and Topology checker.
As you mentioned it is going to be very useful tools among professionals,
students and researchers.
I hope that these tools are publicly available soon in QGIS plugins
repository [1].

And I would like to suggest and encourage you to publish the codes as well
in github or any other public repositories
to attract more contributors such as developers, users, etc.. in the
future.
