    <p>Hi,<br>
      <br>
      I've prepared a beta1 of GDAL 3.11.0 to get feedback from early
      testers, for the following next 2 weeks before the release
      candidate.<br>
      <br>
      The NEWS file is here:<br>
      <br>
        <a href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/v3.11.0beta1/NEWS.md" target="_blank">https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/blob/v3.11.0beta1/NEWS.md</a></p>
    <p>The biggest highlight is:<br>
    </p>
    <ul dir="auto">
      <li><a href="https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc104_gdal_cli.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">RFC 104</a>:
        Adding a "gdal" front-end command line interface.
        <ul dir="auto">
          <li>See the <a href="https://gdal.org/en/latest/programs/index.html#gdal-application" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">list of commands</a></li>
          <li>Includes a completely new "gdal raster calc" utility.</li>
          <li>Includes "gdal vsi list/copy/delete" (ports of Python
            sample scripts)</li>
          <li>Includes "gdal driver {driver_name}" for driver-specific
            commands.</li>
          <li>Includes smart Bash autocompletion</li>
          <li>Includes C, C++, Python API</li>
        </ul>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p>This is an alternative
      interface to GDAL and OGR command line utilities. We would
      certainly welcome feedback from your testing to confirm that we
      are hopefully aiming at the right direction. Note that the naming
      of commands and options is not frozen at that point, and that not
      all traditional utilities have been ported yet (will continue
      during the 3.12 cycle)<br></p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Just to make it clear. What is included in 3.11 (about "gdal" command) could change in 3.12? I see it will be extended, but I do not have clear how stable is the new CLI/API.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><p>

    <p>Docker -latest images are just in the cooking and will reflect
      the state of beta1 when they'll be ready, hopefully by tomorrow,
      and should be a good start for testing:
