> Hi devs, > > The Qt4 and Python 2.7 is going away from QGIS master, following this PR: > Require python 3 and qt5 https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/3510 > > But a part of the project directly suffered of this: QGIS Server. As > explain on the Pull Request 'Require python 3 and qt5', all the QGIS Server > tests has been disabled. This means that QGIS Server is not maintained with > automatic tests for QGIS 3. > > So Mathias Khun has opened an issue about QGIS 3 API to remove QGIS Server > from QGIS master. > https://github.com/qgis/qgis3.0_api/issues/63 > The discussion is opened but I don't know if all the developpers are aware > of this. > > For our team, 3Liz (Michaël, David and I), the QGIS Server is a big part > of the QGIS project and it will really be a pitty if it disappears. A part > of the QGIS users are interesting in it because they can published web > services directly from their work. So QGIS Server is a reason for them to > use QGIS. Many users like the part of using QGIS desktop to configure > easily many options for publication, and use WMS, WFS, WCS and event WPS > with different clients (one of them is Lizmap). > We take much time (and about half of it without funds) to keep this > feature alive and up to date with QGIS improvements, and are willing to > continue down this path (we believe in it and have many good feedbacks from > users) > > We would like to raise interest around QGIS Server, and report here that > this part of QGIS is really used in production by companies and research > centers, and maintained by some devs, and not just a QGIS side project "for > fun". > > We just discussed with Alessandro Pasotti and we would like to create a > team to maintain and discuss about the evolution of QGIS Server. We would > like to use this opportunity to improve QGIS Server and make it more > maintainable and granular. > > Some questions to gather reactions : > * Who is interested in maintaining QGIS Server ? > I'm interested in :-) > * Who is interested in participating in QGIS Server (code, ideas, review, > tests) ? > Also. For camp to camp it's an important part of QGIS :-) > * Please share any ideas to enhance (refactor) QGIS Server > > Regards, > René-Luc D'Hont > _______________________________________________ > Qgis-developer mailing list > [email protected] > List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer > Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer -- camptocamp.com mapfish.org
