Re: [galeon] WCS core + extensions

Peter:

There is no conflict between TIFF and GML - just some of the TIFF (if
you used GeoTiff) would be redundantly encoded in GML.  Very few GML
coverages would use XML To carry the "pixel" values - so there is no
problem with Tiff, JPG, JP2, etc.

certainly you are right, Ron, but not always a GML coverage is feasible.
Still people like TIFF ;-)
