Radu,
Based upon your description, I suspect that PCL does not quite fit our
selection category.
Ideally we would be looking to see the geospatial department of an
established, risk adverse organisation using PCL are a core part of the
geospatial analysis.
From what I'm seeing from your description, it seems that while
geospatial applications might make use of PCL and PCL outputs, PCL is
not a geospatial application in its own right.
Thanks for the conversation, and feel free to get back to me if I've
mis-understood.

Cameron,
Thanks! It looks like PCL might be useful for the OSGeo community.
Though not targeting Geospatial data or the Geospatial community per
se, we deal with large 3D point cloud structures, and provide a
variety of algorithmic tools (mostly in the form of libraries at the
moment, less on GUIs/complete applications -- with the exception of
demo applications/tech demonstrators of course) that someone could use.
I'd be happy to provide more information about our project if you
think that's valuable for your software DVD distribution.
Thanks,
Radu.

Cameron,
I am not familiar with the category requirements for geospatial
projects within OSGEO. Could you please point me in
the right direction?
Thanks,
Radu.

Radu,
It sounds like PointCloudLibrary might be a candidate for including
on the OSGeo-Live [1] DVD, and associated marketing
pipeline? Does it fit the category of "an established Open Source
Geospatial project"?

All,
Over the weekend, in overflowing rooms at the Point Cloud
Processing workshop and PCL tutorial at CVPR 2012, Willow
Garage proudly announced the creation of Open Perception, Inc.
(OP) -- http://www.openperception.org, an independent
non-profit foundation, focused on advancing the development and
adoption of open source software for 2D and 3D
processing of sensory data. For more details about the
announcement, please see the official press release
(http://www.prweb.com/releases/2012/6/prweb9612759.htm).
Open Perception is founded by a global community of researchers
and engineers for the benefit of the industrial and
research 3D perception communities. The Point Cloud Library (PCL)
project represents Open Perception's most important
work to date consisting of a large scale, BSD-licensed open
project for 3D point cloud processing.
The foundation is set up to receive donations and sponsorship from
anyone, and will concentrate on paying developers
in the community, giving students travel grants and stipends,
organizing open source events, and supporting its
projects, such as PCL. The more support OP receives, the more it
can do and give back to the entire world.
Open Perception is an open organization. We are welcoming support
ranging from a pat on a shoulder, to lines of code
and monetary donations. Please visit the foundation's Get
Involved! page (http://www.openperception.org/get-involved/)
and see how you can contribute today.
Cheers,
Radu.
