Hi All, I've made a start on a rewrite of rgdal. You can find it at https://github.com/thk686/rgdal2.
There is still lots to do. I would be happy to have a GSOC student work on this project if anyone is interested (via R or OSGeo). In particular I would really like to have a test suite. Writing the examples is what is slowing me down at this point. I do not store the auto-generated files in git, so you need roxygen2 and Rcpp to build. Some of the goals of the project are to expose GDAL/OGR facilities through a native R interface emulating arrays, lists, etc; to make it easy to iterate over raster blocks and vector features; and to provide support for raster-vector operations. It is semi-useable at this point; I'd be happy to have folks test it out.
