[Liblas-devel] FYI: Open Source licensing in the context of data format standards

[Howard Butler]

Gene Roe posted a blurb on his website about the upcoming E57.04  
standard he is participating in asking about open source licensing.  I  
took a shot at answering what I felt in terms of the LAS  
specification, but I would be interested to hear anyone else's opinion  
on the matter as well.

Would libLAS make a good reference implementation for the LAS  
specification if a test suite was developed and the committee  
sanctioned it?
