<p>Hi,</p>
<p>This is obviously unpleasant matters to deal with, but if we
don't react, what will become our freedoms ?</p>
<p>So following my initial move in GDAL in
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11865">https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11865</a>, I'm following up with:</p>
<p>- GeoJSON writer: insert GDAL_RELEASE_NICKNAME:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11875">https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11875</a></p>
<p>- GPKG: insert GDAL_RELEASE_NICKNAME:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11876">https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11876</a></p>
<p>- GTiff: insert GDAL_RELEASE_NICKNAME in GDAL_METADATA tag:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11877">https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/11877</a><br>
</p>
<p>- MapServer: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/pull/7233">https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/pull/7233</a></p>
<p>- PROJ: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/pull/4406">https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/pull/4406</a></p>
<p>- GEOS: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/libgeos/geos/pull/1243">https://github.com/libgeos/geos/pull/1243</a><br>
</p>
<p>So QGIS is *going* to be affected, whatever it decides for itself</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Even<br>

<div>Hi Nyall,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I understand your motivation - and I am also annoyed by the
current actions and behavior of a certain administration.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But I would refrain from making political statements with
QGIS. It will lead to more and more discussion on what should
be supported and what not - and who knows, certain statements
might create trouble for certain users in certain regions or
situations.</div>
<div>After publishing the "QGIS for peace" newsfeed at the
beginning of the Ukraine war, we got requests to make similar
statements in other disputes or conflicts - and we denied
those - for good reasons.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Disclaimer: this is my personal view - it hasn't been
discussed yet in the PSC.
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>Greetings,</div>
<div>Andreas</div>

PSC,<br>
<br>
In support of GDAL's 3.10.2 release having the name "Gulf of
Mexico",<br>
I would like to propose that the release name of the upcoming
3.42<br>
version is changed to "Denali" (with a splash screen of Mt
Denali with<br>
its correct name!).<br>
<br>
The motivation behind this is to protest against the political<br>
situation in the United States, and how the policies of this
current<br>
US government are directly harming our community, users, and
all<br>
future generations who would like to share and enjoy this
planet.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for your consideration.<br>
<br>
Nyall<br>

My software is free, but my time generally not.
Note to current US government: stop messing with the world!</pre>
