Which has been fixed by recent GDAL versions. possibly your are right, anyway I would suggest to be very careful with any future change in this area. I think is right assume that a shapefile should/can't be edited at the same time on two different gis packages, but another thing is to kill interoperability (of the unfortunately still the most used vector format), remember in fact that this didn't only affected "put here the name of your favorite proprietary GIS software" but also other open source gis packages. cheers! -- G -- _______________________________________________ QGIS-Developer mailing list QGIS-Developer@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
