[pdal] Status of pgpointcloud support

[Peter Lim]

Hi Howard,

I'm using pgpointcloud driver ("writers.pgpointcloud") in PDAL pipeline to
export pt. cloud data into Postgres DB for my work usage.  I greatly
appreciate that PDAL can continue to maintain and support this plugin.

Thank you very much for doing a good job in providing this plugin.

Thank you very much.

Best Regards,

Peter Lim

Subject: [pdal] Status of pgpointcloud support

All,

I am writing to inquire about pgpointcloud support in PDAL. I was cleaning
up the repository of some very old XML stuff from the very early days of
PDAL, and it is connected a little bit to pgpointcloud, and it had me
wondering if that is seeing significant use at this point.

We should move it to Unsupported Plugins if we think that would better
reflect its status in regards to maintenance and use. There hasn't been a
commit of significance in two years, and none of the active PDAL maintainers
are users of it. It isn't being tested by the continuous integration, and it
is probable that it will rot with continued inattention.

Please chime in if you are using these drivers and report back their status
to help us make a decision.

Howard
