Right - Mathieu, could you please open tickets on their respective bugtracker? I'm sure suggesting a way to do it will greatly speed up the process.

Re: [Qgis-developer] WMTS 1.0 - first implementers
For the UI side of things, I'd also like to see {QuickMapServices, OpenLayers} updating its code so that - on QGIS >= 2.18 - layers are served as native TMS support. That'd make pre-existing users of those plugins able to continue using the same UI as before, while benefiting from Martin's phenomenal work (raster manipulation support, rotation support, progressive rendering, etc.).

It is quite complicated and the user experience is not great. I am not sure XYZ layers should be even handled within WM(T)S dialog - there is nothing like GetCapabilities, layer/style/crs selection etc. XYZ layers would still deserve some kind of configuration GUI - apart from URL, users should be able to set min/max zoom levels. The current solution was just a quick way to make XYZ layers available to users...

BTW, I think it would be good to expand on this; in general, the project would gain from a closer relation with OGC, updating constantly our listing, seeking certification where possible, etc. I think this would be most suited for commercial firms around QGIS, rather than for the main project itself - our limited resources could be better spent in infrastructure, bugfixing, etc. If some of them is interested, please speak out.

Hi Paolo, I'm also a little puzzled by our message :-) We already had WMTS 1.0 in QGIS for a long time isn't it? I understand now from Luigi's reply that Martin added a lot of new stuff, and restructured a lot. But here in NL the free national WMTS services (aerials and topo) have been used a lot already. I added a comment on the https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/3473 about the native resolutions. Also wondering how this works with the tile scale slider.
