Thanks a lot Larry. PDAL is certainly interesting, as it is used and supported by
PostGIS [0]. Unfortunately is not (yet?) available on Debian-based OSs, but I guess
this can change. What would be good is, rather than (or in addition to) a Processing
provider, a data provider. I guess this should be developed from scratch, right?
All the best.
