That's an option that could be done for some changes perhaps, but to do it, you must have sufficiently thought to the implementation to come with a good API, and when you're at that point, you've already spent enough energy that it's better to do the implementation itself rather than coming back to it months later. I'm not sure how users would deal with stub implementations of the API: that could be confusing. _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
