some questions for my understanding :

  * does it only aim at raster datasets async read (no vector dataset
support) ? whilst jpip at first is of great interest, it could be really
interesting to be able to read WFS streams for instance.

Didier,

The RFC does not attempt to address a similar capability in the OGR realm.

  * no write support foreseen ? (well, not sure it is relevant ...)

I do not foresee write support.  While I can see value in asynchronous
writing, it does not that the concept of progressive update applies on
the write side.  I will note that writes are already cached rather than
being done synchronously, so we could do async writing right now without
changing the API if we just had a thread that flushed out writable blocks
without interfering with the main thread.

Best regards,
