<p class="MsoNormal">Dear QGIS developers,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">As some of you may know, a new version of the PROJ library is about to be released. At the moment we are on release candidate 3 [0].<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">It is very likely that this release candidate will be promoted to the final release. Before that happens though, I want to make sure<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">that we are not breaking the interface to QGIS. I don’t expect this to happen but since the internals of the library has undergone<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">major surgery some testing of this is warranted. Especially in QGIS which is too important to not work with a new major release of<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">PROJ.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">So, has anyone from the dev team successfully build QGIS against the current release candidate? And if not, would someone be<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">willing to spend a bit of time testing if everything works as expected? I know this is a bad time since everybody is busy with<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">QGIS3, but nonetheless a quick check confirming that the new major versions of both QGIS an PROJ works together will be good<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">for both projects.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
