[gdal-dev] Call for discussion on RFC 70: Guessing output format from output file name extension

[Sean Gillies]

Hi Even,

This seems reasonable to me.

What will be done about the GeoJSON driver case, where we have one driver
covering both GeoJSON and EsriJSON (and other JSONs)? If a user specifies
foo.json which of the GeoJSON driver modes do they activate?
