I guess should have put even more qualifying adverbs there I guess :) The big question is should the next major release be 3.9 or 4.0, and if it is to be 4.0, what behavior and API changes are tolerable and worth the trouble? That list of stuff in 8440 is where to have the discussion. > Small clarification: RFC 98 intends to capture all consequences. No other RFC > related to that for now :-) Correct. When Python exceptions are always enabled by default in GDAL 4.0, one of my life goals will be satisfied.
