 The focus of this release are stability fixes. Importantly, PROJ6+ / WKT2 are now supported. Further stability fixes, documentation improvements and updated message translations are included. The raster data link module `r.external` is now notably faster. And a new module to downgrade a temporal DB from version 3 to 2 has been added. Eventually, a series of new add-ons has been made available as well.
