Hey Howard

Good question. I tend to head for pipelines and python also. So my
vote is "do what is easiest for the PDAL team to maintain". If that
means deprecating the listed kernels, +1 from me. I've never used them
in practice or in training.

Cheers

Adam

For a lot of these capabilities, I find myself using simple pipelines or writing more complex logic using the new Python bindings. It is my hypothesis that many of you are doing the same. Specifically, are they being used? If so, what makes them successful for you (or not).
