Hey all,
Have there been any more thoughts on XYZM support? I may be in a
position to help fund some of this work in 2013.
I have been negligent enough to not even write about this to the Wiki. I
did that now.
It would be good to have somebody get to work with this.

Folks,
The deadline for 2.0 is at the end of this year:
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/milestone/2.0.0
Ari,
Lets not take this deadline too seriously. If it takes
till summer 2013 for 2.0 that is ok (IMHO).
Deadlines are usually good ;)
but I have no problem with this. If it takes longer then it takes
longer.
Is the RFC list the best source for what new features are
planned for it?
This page is about smaller issues for 2.0:
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/GDAL20Changes
I have an old wish to have full XYZM support in GDAL and
it would be a good
candidate to the plan for 2.0 - see also
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg13470.html
Is anybody doing a review of what it would take?
I believe XYZM support would be a great feature for 2.0 and
ideally
would be part of an upgrade to the more recent "simple
features geometry"
model that includes various other geometry types.
I'm not sure who might want to take on this task though. It isn't
currently a focus of mine even though I'd like to see it happen.
We aren't really a Roadmap kind of project, but I welcome
discussion
of things we would like to accomplish in 2.0 which is our
opportunity
for substantial changes.
I could do two things:
Edit the "smaller issues" page to contain also larger issues (as
the link to it on the main page says).
Begin a XYZM RFC.
Ari
