Folks,<br>
<br>
The deadline for 2.0 is at the end of this year:<br>
<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/milestone/2.0.0" target="_blank">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/<u></u>milestone/2.0.0</a><br>

Ari,<br>
<br>
Lets not take this deadline too seriously. If it takes<br>
till summer 2013 for 2.0 that is ok (IMHO).<br>

Deadlines are usually good ;)<br>
<br>
but I have no problem with this. If it takes longer then it takes longer.<div class="im"><br>

Is the RFC list the best source for what new features are planned for it?<br>
<br>
This page is about smaller issues for 2.0:<br>
<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/GDAL20Changes" target="_blank">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/<u></u>wiki/GDAL20Changes</a><br>
<br>
I have an old wish to have full XYZM support in GDAL and it would be a good<br>
candidate to the plan for 2.0 - see also<br>
<a href="http://www.mail-archive.com/gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org/msg13470.html" target="_blank">http://www.mail-archive.com/<u></u>gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org/<u></u>msg13470.html</a><br>
Is anybody doing a review of what it would take?<br>

I believe XYZM support would be a great feature for 2.0 and ideally<br>
would be part of an upgrade to the more recent "simple features geometry"<br>
model that includes various other geometry types.<br>
<br>
I'm not sure who might want to take on this task though. It isn't<br>
currently a focus of mine even though I'd like to see it happen.<br>
<br>
We aren't really a Roadmap kind of project, but I welcome discussion<br>
of things we would like to accomplish in 2.0 which is our opportunity<br>
for substantial changes.<br>

I could do two things:<br>
<br>
Edit the "smaller issues" page to contain also larger issues (as the link to it on the main page says).<br>
<br>
Begin a XYZM RFC.<br>
