- jrockway 16y agoI was being a little facetious. There are a lot of "startup ideas" that should have been a quick script in the pastebin. Needless to say, they don't get very far, because most people would rather use that quick script they found on pastebin. Because it's free, and easy.
- wlievens 16y agoFor this specific idea, I can imagine there being several items that add value. I just wanted the OP to clarify what he's offering. For example: Queueing multiple conversions as jobs Faster processing than you'd do on your crappy box Renaming columns with a user-friendly interface Solving some of the hassle with character encodings (I've had some trouble with ESRI shapefiles on that front) Mapping to a user-defined model (e.g. specified with an XSD) But the way it looks right now, he doesn't even offer a PostGIS SQL target, which is a real pity.
