Thanks to the participation of the LizardTech folks, I think there will also be some performance testing done with MrSID rendering within MapServer, and there was &#8212; as always &#8212; more discussion of the &#8220;proj strings are expensive to look up!&#8221; discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, it was a quiet day; lots of work getting done, but not much excitement in the ranks.<\/p>\n<p>We then had a great dinner at Baton Rouge, and made it home.<\/p>\n<p>This evening, I&#8217;ve been doing a bit more hacking, opening a <a href=\"http:\/\/trac.osgeo.org\/gdal\/ticket\/2879\">GDAL Trac ticket<\/a> for an issue Schuyler bumped into with the sqlite driver, and pondering the plan for OpenLayers tomorrow. <\/p>\n<p>As before, a special thanks to the conference sponsors for today: <a href=\"http:\/\/coordinatesolutions.com\/\">Coordinate Solutions<\/a> via David Lowther, and the lovely folks at <a href=\"http:\/\/sjgeophysics.com\/\">SJ Geophysics Ltd.<\/a>. Thanks for helping make this thing happen! I can guarantee that neither of those GDAL tickets would have happened without this time. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 2 of the code sprint seemed to be much more productive.
