This article, though, continues to show up in the top 10 results. If you have a website, you should link to it ;) You're welcome.

It converted my KML files to shapefiles perfectly. I don't know why it doesn't come up readily in Google searches. Thank you thank you thank you for providing a link to QGIS.

Nice post. One quick correction: QGis is not written in Java.
