All, I have just uploaded releases candiates for the upcoming releases of PROJ 9.0.0 and PROJ-data 1.9.
The PROJ release candidate is includes various improvements, a few bug fixes and most notably it *doesn’t* include autotools makefiles. See the draft release notes below. The PROJ-data packages includes new grids for the Polish ETRF2000-PL, Norwegian chart datum grids and the Belgian hBG18 geoid model.
