[pdal] PDAL 1.0.0 Released

[Albert Godfrind]

I am a bit confused about the installation process on Linux. The rpms on http://pdal.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/rpms/ seem to only define the repository environment for the installation proper ?

$ sudo yum install pdal
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, security
Setting up Install Process
No package pdal available.
Error: Nothing to do

I downloaded the RPM:

$ wget http://pdal.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/rpms/repo/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pdal-redhat-1.0-1.noarch.rpm

Installed the RPM:

$ sudo rpm -iv pdal-redhat-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
Preparing packages for installation...
pdal-redhat-1.0-1

PDAL did not get installed, but I can now use yum. Except it fails with a 403 (forbidden):

$ sudo yum install pdal
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit, security
http://pdal.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/rpms/repo/redhat/rhel-6Server-x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 22 - "The requested URL returned error: 403"
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fmach-centos7. Please verify its path and try again

Did I miss something ?

There's tons of stuff in it, and for those who've been following along for quite a while now, thanks for hanging around. Here's a short bullet list of PDAL 1.0.0 capabilities, just in time for #foss4g:

Contributions from numerous very patient users and developers also helped get us this far, and they are very much appreciated.

This 1.0.0 release signals that we're ready for folks to give it a spin and see if they find it useful too. We will probably just increment minor versions (1.1, 1.2, ..., 1.x) for a while as we learn and adapt to how others are integrating and using the code in their own situations. Version numbers are cheap, so expect more of them.
