## 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)
