The FOSS4G North America call for papers and workshops is now open. #gischat #foss4gna talks.osgeo.org/foss4g-na-2024/

I think one of the best things about the gdal org 3.9 release is going to be the refactor to the drivers such that they can be loaded in a deferred way without much performance impact. This will allow GDAL's huge dependency footprint to be managed much more effectively.

FOSS4G NA call for papers closes tomorrow (Sunday June 9). Last chance to dance. foss4gna.org
