I work with this data format everyday, along with gdal/ogr. It would be great to contribute any way. Thanks! Sign me up!

Bowman's <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/raster/r.in.xyz" rel="nofollow">r.in.xyz</a> module for GRASS. Direct access to LAS files along with gridding operators would be a nice thing to have in GDAL/OGR! Great job! This looks like an excellent update to H. Bowman’s r.in.xyz module for GRASS.

Repeating Hobu's call, developers, testers and users are wanted :) I would add that it might be more reasonable to interpolate LIDAR cloud to grid structures and then use such algorithm as a foundation of GDAL driver, instead of treat LIDAR as vector and use with OGR driver.
