<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">Hi,</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">As a feedback from the previous motion, it appears that GDAL 3.0 would </p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">probably better reflect the API & behaviour changes that have been done, and </p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">be in accordance with our HOWTO-RELEASE procedure and semantic versionning </p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">rules.</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">I'm OK with that change.</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">If we decide for that, the plan would probably be:</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">- change in docs & other materials the references to 2.5 to 3.0</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">- create a release/3.0 branch from the HEAD of release/2.5</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">- abandon release/2.5 branch (that is: backports would be done in release/3.0, </p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">and for longer support in release/2.4 when appropriate)</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">- issue a 3.0.0RC1 from that</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap">- call master 3.1dev</p>
<p style="margin:0px;text-indent:0px;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></p>
