All,

It’s soon time for another round of PROJ and PROJ-data releases, so in preparation for the final
releases I have uploaded release candidates for both packages.

Download the archives here:

https://download.osgeo.org/proj/proj-data-1.14RC1.tar.gz
https://download.osgeo.org/proj/proj-data-1.14RC1.zip


The PROJ release includes updates to the database contents and bug fixes. See the release notes below.

The PROJ-data release adds the following transformations grids:

- German Hessen grids
- Canadian RGNC15 grids
- Danish grids for a number of older CRS's

Please test the release candidates and report any issues you may find with them. Either here
on the mailing list or on GitHub.
