I'd like to push out a PostGIS 3.3.0alpha1 this week.
+1 from me.


Key points:

1) PostgreSQL 15 Beta 1 shipped this week.  
2) Packagers are unable to build against PostGIS 3.2, but we have already
patched PostGIS 3.3.0 (master) to support PostgreSQL 15.
3) PostGIS 3.3.0 has new features specifically designed for PostgreSQL 15,
so I'd really like PostGIS 3.3.0 to be tested alongside PostgreSQL 15

4) Backporting the fixes to 3.2 is a non-trivial amount of code and the new
index changes would complicate any PG Upgrade from PostgreSQL 15 3.2 to any
later PostGIS version.

So I'd like to very much avoid supporting PostGIS 3.2 on PostgreSQL 15.

Thanks,
Regina
