Good discussion, comments inline:

I understand, wonder if we are going to have to take screen snaps of video
chats soon :)

Understood, I should probably make a simple black frame for this kind of
use. Thanks for the background.

Thanks that is working great, I was able to find your project.

I think you can add new standards as you go? I will add those two for you
now....

MobilityDB is mainly developed and supported by an academic team in

OSGeo has the idea of GeoForAll Labs for academic and research teams. Is
your team part of GeoForAll?

Nice work! Even just for releases and stuff it is helpful.
