Sorry for the late notice but I just wanted to give the list a quick heads up. I co-presented at an American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) workshop this week in Baltimore. My colleagues and I gave a workshop titled "A Do-It-Yourself Approach to Lidar and Imagery Processing and Analysis Using Open-Source Tools". The objective is pretty straightforward: how to work with lidar and geo-spatial imagery if you don't have lots of $$ for commercial software. We covered some pretty basic stuff in FWTools, QGIS, Matlab/Octave and I specifically showed liblas in Python as well as the power of Martin's LASTools. Nothing too fancy...Reading and writing LAS, filtering points by height, intensity, scan angle, etc. It was very much geared for the beginner/intermediate level. Anyway, I have some slides and lab exercises that I'd be happy to share with anyone who might be interested.
Neat. If you have a PDF of the presentation materials, I'd be happy to put them on liblas.org in the documentation section. I don't think we suffer from an overage of documentation materials.
/me wonders if the proprietary LiDAR software folks dropped in to take a look too ;)
