Status reports

• Martin: Not much coding news. Blog post is live! QuantStack slowing down (Arjun still on project).
• Arjun: Processing proof-of-concept. Initially using GDAL WASM under the hood. Create a buffer on vector layer. Building a form to let the user customize the operation.
  • https://github.com/geojupyter/jupytergis/pull/510
  • Reproducibility!
  • QGIS using GDAL under the hood
    • It sometimes provides the underlying GDAL commands in the processing GUI
    • Build a JSON schema for GDAL commands
    • This schema would generate Typescript & Python interfaces
    • This will help with form generation
    • Could also enable generation of Python code (GDAL Python bindings)
