Dear developers of profile plugins, as you know, we do our best to keep the plugin repository tidy and clean, to reduce duplication which is confusing for the users and makes management and maintenance more difficult. With >1,000 plugins now, this is a necessity more than a choice. A suggestion from Calvin[0] in the qgis-dev mailing list pushed me to approach you again, to check together the opportunities to improve the current situation. I would be grateful if you could take the time to check his suggestions and discuss together the way to come up with a beautiful, unified plugin. I know this is extra work for you, and that everybody tends to like his own solutions, but the gains from having an unified solutions are great from all points of view. Looking forward for your suggestions. Cheers.
