[Gdal-dev] OGR TIGER driver now supports TIGER/Line 2002 form at

[Martin, Daniel]

Quite honestly, as long as it includes the ogr2ogr.exe or something similar,
I don't care.  I've merely been a brainless consumer-level user when it
comes to GDAL/OGR.  I guess my next obvious question is, does it include
ogr2ogr?  :)
