Hi Pirmin and others,
Tim should correct me - but as far as I remember we said that threading
support is one of the major things we want to see in QGIS 2.0 (along
with raster redesign, atlas printing and others). But none of us were
sure in what timeframe Martin can work on it and when it will be
finished. Therefore we decided not to make it a blocker.
We also decided that the geometry refactoring (for arcs, splines,
z-values, m-values, multitype geometries, etc.) should be done after
QGIS 2.0. I am not sure if this would again mean API breaks ...
So I am against postponing the multithreading work and I had the
impression that this was the conclusion of others as well.

-1 from me.
This is against the release plan we agreed on the hackfest.
IMHO, current master can be a great 2.0 release with many new
features in a
few months.
Your additions are the begin of the next level - an even greater 3.0
release.
So I would strongly prefer to have these changes in a
"plugin-ng"-branch
instead of starting a "frozen" 1.9 branch.

Pirmin
