[Qgis-developer] SPIT core plugin - can be we remove it?

2015-12-03 Thread Nathan Woodrow
Hi all, Is there any need to keep this plugin. It's really old and there is a growing number of other ways to do this process. Having 10 different ways to do 1 thing is not good so I would like to remove it from the code if we can and focus efforts in other areas to improve those. Objections?
