    <font size="-1"><font face="Arial">Hi All,<br>
        <br>
        I'm having a time getting MapServer built on RHEL8 due to recent
        PostGIS and GDAL packages in the pgdg repository using different
        versions of Proj. The ones that are consistent all use Proj 8. I
        can find a PostGIS that uses Proj7 but the GDAL package that
        meets the requirements uses Proj8.<br>
        <br>
        My question is does this upcoming release 7.6.3 allow MapServer
        to be built with Proj 8?  I believe that would solve my dilemma.<br>
        <br>
        Regards, <br>

      Please get your branch-7-6 changes done this month, as on April
      30th we'll do a 7.6.3 release, as the feedback for this idea seems

        <br>
        <br>
        With the recent proposed changes coming down the pipe for 8.0, I
        feel that we must again push back the 8.0 release dates much
        more, to something more realistic & to give time for
        feedback and testing for these major upcoming changes. 
        August/September is our usual big release deadline each year, so
        here are the proposed date changes for 8.0 :
        <br>
        <br>
           Feature freeze: Fri. August 6, 2021
        <br>
           8.0-beta1: Fri. August 13, 2021
        <br>
           8.0-beta2: Fri. August 20, 2021
        <br>
           8.0-rc1: Fri. August 27, 2021
        <br>
           8.0 (final): Fri. September 3, 2021
        <br>
        <br>
        I've updated the release plan to point to the latest draft RFCs
        etc.
        <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/MapServer-8.0-Release-Plan">https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/MapServer-8.0-Release-Plan</a>
        (please edit if I missed anything)
        <br>
        <br>
        Also, likely it would be good for the community to have another
        7.6 bugfix release, so 7.6.3, as there are a couple of changes
        in the pipeline that would be useful for users, while they wait
        for the big 8.0:
        <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/compare/rel-7-6-2...branch-7-6">https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/compare/rel-7-6-2...branch-7-6</a>
        <br>
        <br>
        Therefore I propose that we release 7.6.3 at the end of this
        month (April 30th).
        <br>
        <br>
        Please share your thoughts here.
        <br>
        <br>
        Thanks,
