Hi and thanks for your fast reply,<br><br><div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I'm concerned that this is a rather specialized driver, and that folks might
<br>actually want to use rasters from MySQL in a variety of other ways as well.</blockquote><div><br> Can you give me an example? I can't imagine (I'm not so expert in gis maps) how a raster map could be stored in a mysql db other than the one of storing the whole file in a blob...

<br>subversion, but I'm not yet all that comfortable that this makes sense as<br>*the* mysql raster driver for GDAL.</blockquote><div><br>How should I do that? And how could this first "idea" of driver be improved? I could work on it if only I'd have some feedback about the direction it should go and if I'm pretty sure that it won't be wasted time!
