We have already walked [1] that way in libLAS and it wasn't easy,
a little roller coaster.

Yeah, I have anecdotal evidence Isenburg gave the OK (Hobu noted it on the 
liblas list), but he didn't specify exactly for *what* he was okay with from 
the tools collection which makes me nervous.  If he were to say all of it, 
then we're all set (I just care about the TINner inside lasview).

Sometimes it's a pain when you try to play by the rules :-(

Again this is GPL, not BSD, but GRASS GIS has TIN support:

 This one (Streaming Delaunay) has BSD-like license, but may be overkill for

 This one (FIST) has nebulous licensing (different for commercial and

 And finally, this one is pretty good, but also has unclear licensing:

 Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] Open source TIN code?
 
 The Community has need of BSD-licensed source code for TIN generation (in 
 3-space).  It doesn't have to be really good, just good enough for some 
 simple demo apps (for example, full-on Delauney support not needed).
 
 I know there are a bunch of TIN algs out there on the net in various places, 
 but I don't have much experience with any of them.  If anyone has any 
 pointers, I'd appreciate it.
