Hi,
this is an interesting question. It depends a lot on your dataset organization workflow and how users access to the data and symbology information.


- organizations with GIS admin, we consider that average users should not have to know what a qml or a database is to be able to use QGIS. The idea here is to store all the reference layers into a few centralized QGIS projects, and wire all QGIS instances with menu_layers_from_project plugin so that a simple drop down menu will allow users to add pre-styled layers (with also metadata, forms &co) to their project in one click.  This is my favourite one because we take into account also some informations that may not be stored in QML


I was not aware of that "Layers from Project". It looks terrific. Thanks, Régis for pointing it out!



, like metadata, which are really useful.  This options assumes you can pre-configure your GIS clients everywhere, and QGIS has all the admin tools you need for this. 



Best regards

Régis

Is there a convention on where to place these files? Perhaps a new directory in the profile? 
It appears they can be saved anywhere, but I'm curious about best practices conventions?
Create the file in a tmp location and import into the style manager?
So many choices.

Thx
