Actions

CQL2 graduated

cql2-text and cql2-json modules have been graduated to supported land, they can now be found in modules/library:

What’s missing (optional requirement classes):

  • ACCENTI/CASEI (accent insensitive/case insensitive comparisons)
  • Temporal operators (we don’t support them all?) Common Query Language (CQL2)
  • Array operators

Currently, some are implemented as functions (extra arithmetics), some discussion about breaking filters/expression visitors if we introduce new expressions/filters. Maybe a stretch goal for GS3.

GSIP-230 OGC API Features Extension

Vote on ML 5 days ago (Nov 28th), voting continues, missing 3 votes: Ian and Kevin.
