Not currently. By the way as far as I know the Arthur paint system in Qt4 is based on AGG. > > Looking through developer mailing lists of last years (2010-2012), I haven't > found active discussion about the development of QGIS engine. > Is there another information about this topic? Not formally that I can think of. Rendering performance in my opinion should be the major focus of the 2.x release series - we have rich functionality now but we need to deliver that quickly to the display device or the user gets frustrated.
