Hi Greg,
actually I'm busy with some deadlines of funded projects.
Anyway, to support Binary Arc/Info we need to define and implement a new
ImageIO plugin (via our ImageIO-Ext GDAL framework) as well as a new
Geotools plugin. After this we need to integrate them on Geoserver. This
would require some days of work.
Waiting for your opinions,
regards.
Daniele
