[gdal-dev] GDAL 3.11.0 release candidate available

Tue May 6 02:03:50 PDT 2025

I checked against R packages sf, terra and stars and found nothing 
unexpected.

I didn't do further reverse dependency checks against the 1000+ revdeps, 
which Roger did until recently, as this takes longer than a few days on 
my laptop; I will try to set things up somewhere such that this can be 
done in shorter time.

Many regards,
