Hi Ricardo,
thanks for the report. Alessandro is testing very much in this days for 
a work related with 3D SfM and IBM reconstruction of a castle. Up to now 
it looks like that CloudCompair is necessary to georeference 3D 
pointclous (in combination with some free tools - developed by Marcus 
Metz and Bernard Fischer - that we hope will be soon released). IMHO 
this is enough to insert CloudCompare in ArcheOS (by now with MeshLab it 
is possible just to "georeference" a mesh in local systems and not a 
pointcloud). We can open an issue about it in Github 
(https://github.com/archeos/ArcheOS/issues?state=open).
Ciao.
