Ubuntu 14.0.4LTS and QGIS 2.0.1-Dufour

Today, I upgraded my Ubuntu to 14.04 LTS then deleted my previous QGIS 2.2. I went back to the Ubuntu Software Centre to see what Ubuntu will recommend as the most compatible version for the latest Ubuntu OS, a step which one should approach if desirous for the most compatible version for the Ubuntu version that is currently installed. When QGIS was installed, I activated it and it seems the version most compatible is Ver 2.0.1-Dufour. By "compatible", I found that Google Maps could be imported as against QGIS 2.2 which is my basic criteria for critical plugins. I give it my thumbs up and 5*****

IPLAN landuse classication QML template

It's lunch time and I have nothing much to do so and since our integrated landuse information system will be adopting an improved landuse classification than the original version (this version has mix-development) that was developed out in 2008, I decided to make a new qml file. Like before, the RGB code per class was attached to the ID but this time, we have decided that all attributes will be written in lower case unlike the current uppercase-lowercase approach as we are confident that this will help reduce typo error and make SQL query more accurate.
