Hi Andrea,
Thanks, I think this is not the first time you’ve pointed me to these resources. I’m surprised that you could only raise 500 euros… Are there any future steps to be expected from anyone? Any public undertakings in order to develop the code? I’m not a developer myself, but I would definitely take a look out of interest. Geoserver/QGIS combo is quite well-spread in Finland. Why even have SLD export in QGIS if it doesn’t match requirements in Geoserver?

It’s a good hint to check geoserver logs, I didn’t realize that. I still think QGIS/Geoserver SLD matching would is important since clients (municipalities in my case) are often capable of creating a style in QGIS, but not writing CSS or SLD from a template. If we’re speaking about planners or engineers and so on, not about GIS personnel. Hi Ville, there has been some work on that direction, but it's suffering from lack of resourcing. A few years ago QGIS SLD generator was emitting invalid SLD (sometimes not even valid XML), I have worked on a bunch of fixes for that in the FOSS4G 2016 code sprint, in Bonn, that got merged, and are available in the latest versions of QGIS 2.18.x. You can read about them in this blog post: https://www.geo-solutions.it/blog/qgis-sld-export/ Then GeoSolutions started a crowdfunding initiative in 2016, links here: * Blog: https://www.geo-solutions.it/news/crowdfunding-qgis-geoserver-styling-interoperability/ * Cost estimates for the various bits: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10SXyCTBiu0KGaXrhyOPVGq6LE2SDx5CTJj5zrV6Xl4U/edit#gid=1338175208 The crowdfunding failed (did not even reach 500EUR), but OpenGeoGroep stepped in and provided funding for one item, the labelling export, which then landed in QGIS 3.0. OSGeo UK also provided some small funds that we are (hopefully) going to use to start the raster export item. We'd need to rally together some of those public administrations you're talking about and have them fund some of that work, I'm quite sure it's not going to happen in any other way.... the clear need for it has been there for years, but significant movement happened only with single person initiatives crushing a lot of spare time on it, or organisations large enough to fund a chunk of the work. I was happy to do to the initial work to get the ball rolling, but it's just too big to do on my own, and I've been disappointed by the community behavior around it, have no plans to continue it in the future during my spare time.
