Hi Greg
In my opinion, Paolo is right.
In my opinion, as soon as amounts of money starts being offered, you
get a contract written out and nailed down. Specify times (including

Thank you.
Qgis is the only organization, and Paolo is the only person I have had any
problem with donating money.
WHY DID NOT PAOLO SIMPLY MAKE A WORKING QGIS AVAILABLE FOR LINUX USERS BACK ON
23 JAN 2010?
Why, 17 days later, can't Paolo answer that question?
Why instead does Paolo write

I must say this is a very sad thread and sad story. I think it's
serious, as it shades bad lights on this community (and these are
words I'm collacting from collegues in these hours).
Anyway, as Barry, I think this can be a lesson that sponsorhip needs a
stronger legal ground, and the community
Paolo emailed me today saying that working executables will not be available
until after the next release of Qgis, an unspecified number of months from now,
but that Paolo wants me to pay now as though these executables were made
available in January 2010. Since Paolo says someone is cheating,
If Paolo wanted the $1,000.00, then why did not he arrange for a working Qgis
executable for Linux users be made available in Jan 2010?

I suspect ambiguity between his concept of 'a verifiable solution'

It is very narrow minded NOT to pay any (at least 50% or so) money IMHO.
If you have a working exe and the code is there (svn) ... what's the
problem. Given that 1000 $ is nothing (even less in EUR) .-) compared to
the time os developers invest in time and whatever else ...
sorry, could not

under linux there was no problem, even with qgis 1.4, as your project

The utility of the solution to you was not explicitly part of the

Hats off to Greg for offering a substantial donation for an important
fix. Most commendable! Hats off to the developers for responding
rapidly. The unfortunate part is the ambiguity of what needed exactly

Just for the records: this is obviously not true. I do not know whether Greg
genuinely does not understand, or if he just is looking for excuses.
No. I NEVER asked ONLY for a Mac OS X executable.
Several Linux users reported their Qgis used 100% of the CPU at start up for
several minutes. So, for you to say there never was a problem under Linux is
inaccurate. Paolo wrote on 7 Feb 2010 that the only Qgis Linux executable
available was
The only thing I know about that is that my .qgs files takes up to 5 minutes to
load in windows on a powerfull computer.
They have a 50MB river database of Brazil.
Without the database they load almost instantly.

Thanks! That is exactly my point.
You did nothing wrong.
That is because Paolo is still not offering you an executable that has
been compiled from the 23 Jan 2010 fixed code. Qgis version 1.4.0
should never have been released to anyone.
This is not the way to solve the problems and make

Wow. So, you are blaming a user, because Qgis 1.4.0 was shipped, when it never
should have been released.
What you call my problem is that working / fixed /useful Qgis executables are
still not available to the Qgis this member of the community. And
Oh guys, please...
So we have a user of a FOSS that expects he can pay his way into getting a
better version straight away (try that with a commercial software ;-) and a
developer who's naive enough to think there's any legal status in promises
made in emails. Both should lick their wounds and
