Project News
----------------------------

* A new GDAL tshirt is now available! Visit 
https://numfocus.myspreadshop.com/gdal+t+shirt-A68deb7db164d8905c4c1035f?productType=1130&sellable=9OeE7gVexMimlaxo9RDB-1130-7&appearance=743
 and then make sure to navigate to the bottom of the page and change your 
country appropriately. Profits from sales go directly to the GDAL Sponsorship 
Program via NumFOCUS! Design and inspiration comes from Lindsey Nield observing 
that "Every new geospatial tool is just GDAL in a trench coat"
