Summary

@opengeos/rustgis-maintainers, a proposal to reorganise the roadmap. It had drifted: Underway named work with no open pull request, several items had landed or their issues had closed, the Done list duplicated the README and stopped being updated, and major threads (#1378, #1405, #1111, the plugin requests) weren't on it. I'm open to revisions on any of this, from the structure down to single items; comment here or push to the branch.

What changes:

GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md's Roadmap labels name the new themes. Items whose planned work has shipped since were updated rather than relabelled: classification methods and selection gestures are ticked, and the right-click menu, clipboard copy, write-back, Reload Data, S3 keychain and Check for Updates items say what exists.

Incidental: docs/comparison/geolibre.md listed MBTiles as desktop only. The web app has read uploaded MBTiles in memory since #113 (crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs, "held in memory and drawn as a tile layer"), as docs/user-guide/data-formats.md says; only reading the file in place is desktop only. File Geodatabase stays listed.

Testing

Markdown only, so cargo xtask ci was skipped; upstream CI runs it on the pull request. Ran pre-commit run on the four files; the docs site build is left to this pull request's docs preview, since the local build queue was busy. Every issue link was checked to be open, or is cited as the source of an item (merged pull requests, #1518).

UI evidence

No visible UI change.

Related issue

Follows #739 and #747 (the last roadmap rework); #951 for the Not planned list; #853 for the date follow-ups.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Clarified that roadmap themes are neither releases nor an ordered sequence, and that roadmap updates should reflect completed or remaining work in the same pull request.
    • Reorganized the roadmap around foundations, everyday workflows, exploratory questions, and work not planned; added guidance on status, coordination, issue tracking, and contribution entry points.
    • Updated the GeoLibre parity guide with revised capability notes across data sources, rendering, editing, analysis, and desktop features.
    • The formats comparison no longer lists MBTiles as a supported GeoLibre format.

…rkflow

Drop the Done section (the README's feature table replaces it), point
Underway at the open pull requests, group the themes into Foundations and
the everyday workflow, add a Decide first marker and a Not planned list,
and add the threads the roadmap was missing. CONTRIBUTING says a landed
item is removed or narrowed. The GeoLibre comparison no longer lists
MBTiles as desktop only: the web app reads uploads in memory.

Marker inconsistency (Quality, confidence ~75%). This PR defines Decide first as the project lead's call under docs/maintaining.md, which lists "the shape of the core types: Coord, Feature, geometries and field types". The Z item here is marked Decide first because it changes Coord, but this item is marked Coordinate first although it changes Feature. The same PR classifies two core-type changes differently. Either mark this item Decide first, or say why Feature changes are not the lead's decision (CONTRIBUTING.md's "changes the data model" bullet is the other source of the Coordinate-first rule).

Possibly stale claim (Bugs/docs, confidence ~60%). The "silent losses" list says the GDAL reader drops Z without a notice. crates/data/src/source/gdal.rs (around lines 361–382) computes zm_dropped on the fresh-conversion path and pushes notes such as "conversion keeps only XY coordinates", including an "unknown number" note when the count fails. Please check whether a GDAL read path still loses Z silently. If the conversion path is covered, narrow this bullet to the path that isn't, so the roadmap doesn't send people to fix a notice that already exists. The DuckDB, SQL Server, TopoJSON and DXF claims need the same check.

Checked each reader in f6cfb06. GDAL (gdal.rs zm_dropped) and SQL Server (zm_note) already report it, so they're out. Still silent: DuckDB queries (ST_Force2D with no note), TopoJSON (reads x and y only), and DXF, which keeps one elevation per entity but flattens each vertex to XY (xy()). The bullet now names those three.

Code review

Scope: docs only. The PR rewrites ROADMAP.md (+262/−216), adds a Decide-first marker and a removed Done list, edits CONTRIBUTING.md (+4/−3), and fixes one row in docs/comparison/geolibre.md. I checked the new links and anchors, the code claims, and the README and user-guide coverage of the removed Done items.

Bugs

  • Stale "silent loss" claim (confidence ~60%). ROADMAP.md:69 says the GDAL reader drops Z without a notice. crates/data/src/source/gdal.rs:361-382 already computes zm_dropped on the fresh-conversion path and pushes notes. Check whether a GDAL read path is still silent, then narrow the bullet. The DuckDB, SQL Server, TopoJSON and DXF claims need the same check. Posted inline.

Quality

  • Inconsistent marker on core types (confidence ~75%). ROADMAP.md:122-123 marks the Z item Decide first (it changes Coord) but the attribute-joins item Coordinate first (it changes Feature). docs/maintaining.md gives the lead the shape of both Coord and Feature. Posted inline.

Security

  • None found. The changes are documentation only.

Performance

  • None relevant to a docs change.

AGENTS.md

  • No violations found. The new links resolve: docs/maintaining.md#saved-files-and-settings, #who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, README.md#features, docs/user-guide/index.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, and the AGENTS.md anchors. The version in Cargo.toml is 0.6.0, matching the page's header.

Verified as accurate

  • rustgis-cli commands and tools exist. search_commands, search_tools and gp.tools exist.
  • Notice has a severity field and no kind, as the roadmap says.
  • COG export uses Deflate level 6, with no predictor, so the "level 1 / predictor 3" item is still ahead.
  • The MBTiles upload path in raster.rs:688 is ungated, which supports the geolibre.md correction.
  • The Done items removed from the page are covered by the user guide, for example Repair Data Source in docs/user-guide/index.md and keyboard shortcut import/export in workspace.md. The README table covers most of the rest.

Concerns already raised on this PR: none (the prior-reviews file had no threads). Nothing was left out as already raised.

Bugs (roadmap accuracy, confidence ~80%). The GeoRSS reader does say what it skips. crates/data/src/georss.rs counts items whose place can't be read (skipped, "N items had places that couldn't be read", around lines 186-196) and items with no place ("…were left out"). lat_lons returns None for a whole coordinate set, so the item is counted rather than dropped silently. Remove GeoRSS from this bullet. KML (kml.rs coords drops malformed tuples silently) and OSM (osm.rs drops inner rings with no host polygon silently) are fine as written. Confirm the same for any other reader this bullet names.

Half right, so narrowed in 0656924: GeoRSS counts items whose place can't be read, but georss.rs still drops an unreadable GML interior ring with nothing reported (the if let Some(r) around line 111). The bullet now says GeoRSS leaves out its unreadable holes; KML and OSM stay as written.

Quality (factual, confidence ~70%). "The variogram is a fixed guess today" is not accurate. crates/analysis/src/kriging.rs:125-126 auto_variogram estimates default parameters from the sample points and the extent, and tools.rs:3672 uses it. The open part is fitting the variogram and cross-validating it. Suggest: "(the variogram is a rule-of-thumb default from the points and extent, not fitted; kriging.rs)".

Quality (ambiguous status, confidence ~70%). This bullet and the "Drawing" bullet below it read like descriptions of current behaviour, but the code doesn't match the first. crates/data/src/raster/cogwrite.rs uses DEFLATE_LEVEL = 6, with no predictor and no thread pool. So level 1, predictor 3 and multi-core tile compression are all still to do. Rewrite both as open items with a verb ("Speed up COG export: Deflate level 1 and predictor 3; compress tiles on several cores (cogwrite.rs, which writes level 6 on one thread today)"), or mark what is already done. Confirm the Drawing items (#1065, #1057, #1067) against the code before the wording is settled.

Bugs

Security

  • Nothing found. The change is documentation only.

Performance

  • Nothing found.

Quality

  • The kriging line says the variogram is "a fixed guess". auto_variogram estimates defaults from the points and extent, so the wording should change (~70%). Inline on ROADMAP.md:264.
  • The "Faster raster writing" bullet reads as done, but cogwrite.rs uses Deflate level 6, no predictor and no threads, so it is open work. The "Drawing" bullet has the same problem, and I couldn't confirm its status (~70%). Inline on ROADMAP.md:134.
  • Minor wording, not inline: "the formats in three parts" (ROADMAP.md:118) is unclear. "asked on Process plugins: a run-scoped relay token when RustGIS starts them #1518, which session plugins closed" (ROADMAP.md:177) is hard to follow. Underway no longer names GPU map or Georeferencer, and I couldn't check whether they have open PRs.

AGENTS.md

  • The PR follows the rules I could check: the marker convention, Decide-first items match docs/maintaining.md, and the anchors and linked docs exist. I found no breach of the code rules.

Verified, no finding

  • DuckDB ST_Force2D (no notice), DXF xy() flattening (no notice), and the OSM and KML hole and coordinate drops are real silent losses, as the roadmap says.
  • The MBTiles-in-web claim in docs/comparison/geolibre.md is supported by crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs:688.
  • GDAL and SQL Server were removed from the Z list, which matches the author's answer in the earlier thread.

Prior reviews: 2 earlier threads were left alone. Both were answered and marked outdated. The Z-marker thread was fixed. The GDAL and SQL Server thread was answered, and my check agrees with that answer.

Keep opengeos#1477's open part (noticing changed files), narrow GeoRSS to its
unreadable holes, word COG export and kriging as what is still to do, and
let an item without an issue be taken without one. GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md's
roadmap labels name the new themes, and items that have since shipped
(classification methods, selection gestures, the right-click menu, the
clipboard copy, write-back, Reload Data) say so.

Accuracy (confidence ~70%). Read as written, this says FlatGeobuf is missing from the web app. The user guide says the opposite for reading: FlatGeobuf is read in place in the browser (docs/user-guide/data-formats.md, around line 216). What is missing is writing it there, which is desktop only because the writer needs a temporary file (around line 587). The item should say export.

Code review

Docs-only PR (4 files: ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/comparison/geolibre.md). No code changed, so no crash, security or performance issues apply. The main risk is that items get dropped or misdescribed when the roadmap is reorganised.

Bugs

  • FlatGeobuf web item reads as a reading gap (ROADMAP.md:160, confidence ~70%). "FlatGeobuf in the web app" under "Waiting on upstream releases" implies reading is missing. The user guide says FlatGeobuf is read in place in the browser, and only export is desktop-only. Posted inline with a suggestion.

Quality

  • Georeferencer is filed under "Edit" (ROADMAP.md:255, confidence ~50%). It is raster georeferencing, not editing. Consider "Add data" or "Analyse".
  • Ambiguous "--strict" bullet (ROADMAP.md, Correct results). It has no marker, so it is unclear whether it is open or self-contained.

AGENTS.md

  • No violations found. The docs-only change doesn't touch code, assets or ribbon placement. The PR's links resolve: docs/maintaining.md anchors, README.md#features, docs/user-guide/index.md, and the AGENTS.md anchors. The "two maintainers" wording for minRustgisVersion matches maintaining.md. The Decide-first list matches the core types in maintaining.md. The MBTiles change is supported by the comment at crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs:688.

Coverage and parity (not verified in code)

Code review

Docs-only PR: four Markdown files, no code. I checked the new claims against the source tree: anchors, CLI and MCP names, Notice fields, DuckDB and DXF silent-loss claims, the MBTiles change, and stale theme or anchor references across the repo. Nothing failed.

Inline comments could not be posted: both attempts returned git_service unavailable, so the findings below are only in this summary.

Bugs

  • Possibly dropped open item (ROADMAP.md ~262, confidence ~45%): the old "Self-contained" entry for an on-map right-click menu is gone. Its isochrone-from-point remainder, which GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md still lists as missing, is only implied by the network-analysis line, which is over a line layer. Name the remainder or say it has landed.

Quality

  • Self-contradicting marker rule (ROADMAP.md 39–40, confidence ~80%): "always links an issue; where it doesn't yet, opening one is the first step" is both mandatory and optional. The persistent-joins item (line 124, Decide first) has no link and says "needs an issue". Suggested rewording: "An item marked Coordinate first or Decide first links its issue, or says one is needed; opening that issue is the first step."
  • Left for the release quality pass (confidence ~40%): CONTRIBUTING.md "Either change goes in the same pull request" is ambiguous. ROADMAP.md Goals states "long work never holds the window" as absolute, while the Large data section says [Feature]: New long-running commands run off the UI thread, and on several cores where practical #1562 leaves some work open.

Security

  • None found.

Performance

  • None found.

  • No violations. Every _Roadmap: label in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md names a current theme, and no stale theme names or ROADMAP.md#… anchors remain in the repo.
  • Verified: README.md#features, docs/maintaining.md anchors, docs/contributing.md#ribbon-guidelines, rustgis-cli commands and tools, MCP search_commands/search_tools, crates/analysis/src/kriging.rs, and cogwrite.rs at DEFLATE_LEVEL = 6.
  • Verified: DuckDB ST_Force2D and DXF per-vertex XY flattening have no notice. Notice has no kind field. The MBTiles web-readability change matches raster.rs:688.
  • Verified the Done items are covered by the user guide, though the README lacks a few details (Repair Data Source, conflict-checked saves).

Earlier concerns: 11 prior review threads, all left alone. Their points are addressed in the current head, and I found no new evidence against the author's replies.

Quality (unclear wording, confidence ~60%). "then the formats in three parts" does not say which formats or what the three parts are; a reader has to open #853 or #1325 to find out, and this bullet is meant to be the page's one-line summary. Either name the parts here (e.g. "the formats in three parts: …") or link the issue section that lists them. The rest of the bullet (time zones, recovering a project with an invalid date) reads fine.

Code review

I reviewed the four-file docs PR (ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/comparison/geolibre.md) against the code it describes. Nothing in it is a bug or a security issue. I posted one inline comment, and one more concern didn't anchor, so it's listed below.

Bugs

  • None found. I checked the factual claims the PR relies on:
    • rustgis-cli commands/tools, MCP search_commands/search_tools, and edit.traverse all exist.
    • The docs anchors (saved-files-and-settings, who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, ribbon-guidelines, README Features) resolve.
    • Shapefile, KML, KMZ and GPX are still written from a whole layer, so the "exported a chunk at a time" item is correctly listed as open.
    • The 2-million-feature read cap (MAX_LIMIT in crates/data/src/source/mod.rs) exists.
    • The plugin secrets permission does not exist yet.
    • The MBTiles change in docs/comparison/geolibre.md matches crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs.
    • The four "Coordinate first" / "Decide first" items link an issue or say one is needed, as the page's rule requires.

Security

  • None.

Performance

  • None (docs only).

Quality

AGENTS.md

  • The PR follows the rules I could check. The roadmap and CONTRIBUTING changes match the "only what isn't done yet" rule. The new Goals lines restate AGENTS.md's "Never crash / Never silent / Never hold the window" rules. Nothing touches code, assets or attribution.

Dropped open item (roadmap accuracy, confidence ~80%). The old line was "labels by expression and a builder are missing (Roadmap: expressions and cartography)". The new text says "an expression builder is missing" with no roadmap label, and ROADMAP.md has no builder bullet anywhere (a search for "builder" finds nothing). An open item with no place on the roadmap is the same class of loss the page's own rule forbids. Either point it at a theme, for example by restoring the label here and adding a bullet under Style and map in ROADMAP.md, or say why the builder is no longer planned.

Leaving this as it is. The old ROADMAP.md had no builder item either: the label pointed at the theme for labels by expression, which have landed (text, size, colour and angle). Adding an expression builder to the roadmap would be a new planning decision, not a correction, so it's a question for the maintainers on this PR rather than something to slip in. Unplanned parity items carry no Roadmap label, as the file's header says.

Code review

Scope: ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and docs/comparison/geolibre.md. This is a documentation-only change, so I checked links, anchors, command and code references, and the page's own marker rules against the repo. I could not check issue or PR state offline.

Bugs

  • Expression builder item dropped from the roadmap (roadmap accuracy, ~80%). The old label pointed to a roadmap theme. The new text has none, and ROADMAP.md has no builder bullet. Inline comment posted on GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md:158.

Security

  • None found in the changed docs.

Scope nit (Quality, confidence ~55%). The per-read feature cap is 2,000,000 on the desktop but 500,000 in the browser (MAX_LIMIT in crates/data/src/source/mod.rs, around line 110). This bullet names only the 2 million figure. Consider saying "(desktop; 500,000 in the browser)" so the item doesn't read as covering the web app too.

Code review

This PR is docs only: ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and one line in docs/comparison/geolibre.md. I found no bugs, security issues or AGENTS.md violations. The claims I checked against the code hold up.

Bugs

  • None found.

Security

  • None (docs only).

Performance

  • None (docs only).

Quality

  • ROADMAP.md:132, cap scope (confidence ~55%, low). The bullet says "the 2 million feature cap lifted", but the browser cap is 500,000 (MAX_LIMIT in crates/data/src/source/mod.rs, around line 110). Posted inline. It can wait for the release quality pass.
  • Nits, grouped (confidence ~50%, low). GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md ticks "More classification methods" and "Selection gestures" with no description, while other [x] entries say what exists. The selection item says "freehand", but the code's selection tools are polygon, lasso and radius. Both are defensible.

AGENTS.md

  • None. Two checks: the new anchors (docs/maintaining.md#who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, #saved-files-and-settings, docs/contributing.md#ribbon-guidelines) exist, and the rustgis-cli commands/tools and MCP search_commands/search_tools references match the code.

Verified against the code

  • Silent Z loss: DuckDB queries use ST_Force2D with no notice, and the TopoJSON reader keeps only 2D points. The roadmap is right to list both.
  • MBTiles: the web app holds uploaded archives in memory (crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs), so removing it from the desktop-only list in docs/comparison/geolibre.md is correct.
  • Chunked export: crates/data/src/export.rs streams only geojson, json, csv, fgb, gpkg, parquet and geoparquet, so the Shapefile/KML/KMZ/GPX item is accurate.
  • Roadmap items removed from the Done list (save edits to GeoPackage/PostGIS, keyboard shortcuts) are still covered by the README feature table.

Prior review threads

  • 16 earlier threads cover this PR. I did not repeat any. The one unresolved thread (the expression-builder roadmap gap, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md) was answered by the author, and I have no new evidence against that answer, so I left it alone.

Underway is no longer defined (Quality, confidence ~60%). The old text defined an underway item as one with an open pull request, or one someone said they were working on in the last week. This paragraph says the open pull requests are the live list, but it drops the definition, so a reader can't tell whether a design discussion without a PR (the storage item below) counts as underway, or whether a theme item with an open PR that is missing from this list does. Keep the one-line definition here so the section stays self-describing.

Code review

Docs-only PR (ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/comparison/geolibre.md). I checked the new cross-references and claims against the repo: the README.md#features and docs/maintaining.md anchors exist, as do docs/user-guide/index.md, apps/rustgis-web/src/web.rs, the rustgis-cli commands/tools subcommands and the search_commands/search_tools MCP tools. MAX_LIMIT is 2M/500k, Notice has severity but no kind, --strict is absent, the CLI and export code match the open-item wording, and the MBTiles in-memory claim holds (raster.rs:688).

Bugs

  • None found that break a build or a link.

Security

  • None. The PR changes only Markdown.

Performance

  • None.

Quality

  • GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md:312 (not in the diff, so the inline comment could not be anchored; posting it here): the keyboard-shortcut line still says "rebindable shortcuts are on the roadmap (any time, [Feature]: Customizable keyboard shortcuts, with export and import #562)". That contradicts the PR in two ways: any time is no longer a theme, which the author says has been fixed for every label, and [Feature]: Customizable keyboard shortcuts, with export and import #562 was moved off the page as landed, with no keyboard item left in ROADMAP.md. Suggested fix: say the shortcut part is done and keep only the cheat sheet as open. Confidence ~90%.
  • ROADMAP.md:56: the PR drops the definition of "underway" (an open PR, or someone working on it in the last week) and leaves only "the open PRs are the live list". Posted inline. Confidence ~60%.
  • ROADMAP.md Platform section: the browser autosave item says "needs an issue" but has no Coordinate first marker, so it reads as (open) self-contained work. The marker and the text disagree. Confidence ~55%.
  • ROADMAP.md Large data: "the feature cap … lifted for the sources that still have it (everything but GeoPackage, FlatGeobuf, GeoParquet and Shapefiles read in place)" is hard to parse. A reader could take it as the cap being lifted for everything except those formats, which is backwards. Confidence ~50%.
  • ROADMAP.md Foundations: "the others say so since fix(data): say when Z and M values are dropped on import and export #1214" is ambiguous about which readers the word "others" refers to. Confidence ~40%.
  • Nits, for the release quality pass: "Hillshade written as Byte" is unclear, and "a view in a page layout (asked on Process plugins: a run-scoped relay token when RustGIS starts them #1518, which session plugins closed)" is hard to read.

AGENTS.md

  • No rule violated. The docs' minRustgisVersion two-maintainer rule and the lead-decision list match docs/maintaining.md. The Decide-first markers on Feature and FieldType items are consistent with that list.

Prior threads: 18 threads already exist on this PR, and none is re-raised here. The expression-builder thread is answered by the author and left alone. I have no new evidence against any answered thread.

The definition covers an item with an open pull request, or one where someone said on its issue or discussion in the last week that they are working on it. "Design work without a pull request yet" fits neither test: the bullet below (How a project stores its data) is listed as underway with no pull request and no statement that anyone is working on it.

Code review

This is a docs-only change (ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/comparison/geolibre.md). I checked the factual claims against the code and docs. The core claims hold up, and I found three issues worth fixing. The three inline comments are posted.

Bugs

  • Browser autosave link dropped, and it conflicts with the code (ROADMAP.md:157, confidence ~60%). apps/rustgis-web/src/web.rs:1148 cites [Feature]: Autosave and crash recovery #873 as the reason browser autosave is missing. The bullet dropped that link and says "needs an issue".

Security

  • None found. The change is documentation only.

Performance

  • None applicable.

Quality

  • Underway section contradicts its own definition (ROADMAP.md:60, confidence ~60%). This is a re-raise of an earlier thread with new evidence. The restored definition covers pull requests and recent statements of work, but the "Design work without a pull request yet" bullet fits neither.
  • "the others say so since fix(data): say when Z and M values are dropped on import and export #1214" is ambiguous (ROADMAP.md:74, confidence ~50%). Naming GDAL and SQL Server would make the status checkable.
  • Two bullets read as done rather than to-do (confidence ~55%). "Hillshade written as Byte" has no verb, and no code writes Hillshade as Byte (a grep of crates/ finds only f32 hillshade output). The same phrasing problem was fixed for COG in an earlier thread, so this one should get a verb: "Write hillshade as Byte".
  • Possible wrong issue number (confidence ~35%). The FlatGeobuf web export item cites Tracking: large data (layers over 2 million features, slow hillshade and GeoTIFF writing) #1111, which is also the Large data theme's issue. Please confirm that is the right issue.

AGENTS.md

  • Checked and consistent. Every _Roadmap: label in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md names a current theme heading. No link points at a removed ROADMAP anchor. The Decide-first and Coordinate-first rules match docs/maintaining.md. The search_commands, search_tools, rustgis-cli commands and rustgis-cli tools references exist. Notice has a severity but no kind, so the --strict bullet is accurate. The MBTiles change in the comparison doc matches the code comment in crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs:688.
  • Not verifiable here. I had no network access, so I could not confirm that GPU map and Georeferencer have no open pull requests. Both left the Underway section in this change.

Prior reviews

  • 18 prior threads exist. I re-raised one (the Underway definition), and I left the other 17 alone, either because they were resolved, outdated, or already answered by the author.

Code review

This is a docs-only PR (ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, one row in docs/comparison/geolibre.md). I found one new issue. I could not post it inline because GitHub rejects comments on lines outside the PR diff, so it is written up here.

Bugs

  • GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md:311-312, stale status and orphaned label (confidence ~90%). The Keyboard-shortcut cheat sheet line still says "rebindable shortcuts are on the roadmap (any time, [Feature]: Customizable keyboard shortcuts, with export and import #562)". This PR moves [Feature]: Customizable keyboard shortcuts, with export and import #562 (customizable shortcuts with JSON import/export) out of ROADMAP's Done list as landed, so the line is now wrong. Shortcuts are rebindable: ui.shortcuts.import and ui.shortcuts.export exist in crates/ui-egui/src/shortcutfile.rs and are documented in docs/user-guide/workspace.md. The _any time_ label also points at a theme this PR deletes. Suggested replacement:
    - [ ] **Keyboard-shortcut cheat sheet**. Partial: Command Search, and shortcuts rebindable with
      JSON import and export ([#562](https://github.com/opengeos/RustGIS/issues/562)).
    

Security

  • None found. The changes are Markdown only.

Performance

  • None found.

Quality

  • Unlabelled "Missing" parity items (SQL Server write-back, Iceberg, S3 SSO and IAM roles, batch geocoding, multi-stop routing, hover tooltips, OS trust store and mTLS) are no longer on ROADMAP. This matches the parity file's rule that unplanned items carry no label, so I am not calling it a bug. The ROADMAP header still says the page "lists what RustGIS doesn't do yet", which reads as more complete than it is. Maintainers may want to state that unplanned gaps are left to GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md. (confidence ~50%)

AGENTS.md

  • The shortcut item above is the only rule-level problem I found. The PR's own rule says a landed item leaves the page or is narrowed in the same change, and this line was missed.
  • The MBTiles change in docs/comparison/geolibre.md is accurate: crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs:688 says uploaded MBTiles are "held in memory and drawn as a tile layer", and docs/user-guide/data-formats.md agrees.
  • Every _Roadmap: …_ label in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md (style and map, add data, analyse, edit, platform, docs and security, projects, saved files and the data model, 3D scenes) matches a current ROADMAP theme heading. The one remaining label outside that form is the _any time_ above.
  • The anchors I checked exist: docs/maintaining.md (#who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, #saved-files-and-settings) and docs/contributing.md#ribbon-guidelines.

Prior threads

  • I left all 22 existing review threads alone; none needed a new post. The shortcut label was not raised by any of them.

Both points from the last summary are in fcfca6b: the shortcut cheat-sheet item says shortcuts are rebindable with JSON import and export (#562), and that was the last bare theme label in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md; the roadmap's opening now says it lists planned work, with unplanned gaps left to GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md.

Stale item (Quality/accuracy, confidence ~65%). Jupyter notebooks are already supported: crates/engine/src/cmd/notebook.rs says notebooks "save as RustGIS notebooks or Jupyter notebooks, and open from either" (.ipynb is read and written). The line reads as if that work is still open. If the open part is running Python cells (the module notes Python cells aren't RustGIS commands and aren't run), name that instead, for example "running Python cells in a notebook", and keep #1056 only if it covers it.

Fixed in eb9750c: the item is now notebooks whose Python cells run beside the map, noting that .ipynb files open and save today. That is what #1056 tracks, so the link stays.

Code review

Bugs. None new. Every factual status claim I checked against the code holds: Notice has no kind field, hostile_params_never_panic and long_commands_stop_when_cancelled_while_they_run exist, the DEFLATE level is 6 in cogwrite.rs, the cap is MAX_LIMIT (500,000 in the browser, 2,000,000 on desktop), Shapefile/KML/KMZ/GPX are not in the streamed export list, the right-click menu has Viewshed and Line Of Sight, MBTiles is held in memory on the web, and the DuckDB ST_Force2D path adds no note. The anchors and cross-references resolve, and no stale theme labels remain. Confidence in these checks: high.

Security. None. Docs-only change.

Performance. None. Docs-only change.

Quality

  • ROADMAP.md:316, "An in-app Python console and Jupyter notebooks (Tracking: Jupyter notebook support (borrowing GeoLibre's JupyterLab design) #1056)": Jupyter notebooks already work, since notebook.rs reads and writes .ipynb. The item reads as open work when it may only be the Python-cell part. Posted inline. Confidence ~65%.
  • ROADMAP.md:136–139, the feature-cap sentence: it is accurate but hard to parse, because "lifted for the sources that still have it: everything but local or uploaded …" is followed by a separate sentence about remote files. Clarity nit only; I did not post it inline. Confidence ~50%.

AGENTS.md

  • The PR skipped cargo xtask ci. AGENTS.md asks for it before every commit. The PR body explains the skip, and upstream CI covers it, so the risk is low. Confidence ~40%.

Prior threads. I left 22 earlier threads alone (14 unresolved, 8 resolved). All of them were already raised or answered. None of the findings above repeats one of them.

Status unclear for #1325 (Accuracy, confidence ~55%). "part 1 in [#1325]" reads as if part 1 has landed or is underway. crates/data/src/value.rs has no date variant in FieldType (only Integer, Double, Text, Boolean), so nothing from part 1 is on main. If #1325 is an open pull request, this item is underway under the page's own definition, and the bullet should say so or the Underway section should list it. If it has been merged, the code doesn't show it. Please say which.

Code review

Bugs: None found in the changed lines. Every link anchor resolves: docs/maintaining.md#who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, #saved-files-and-settings, docs/contributing.md#ribbon-guidelines, README.md#features. The _Roadmap: …_ labels in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md all match theme headings in ROADMAP.md. No stale theme names or ROADMAP.md# anchors remain elsewhere in the repo.

Security: None. The PR changes only Markdown.

Performance: None. Documentation only.

Quality:

AGENTS.md: The PR complies. Its new rules are that a landed item is removed or narrowed, that Coordinate-first and Decide-first items link an issue or discussion, and that theme labels match headings. The checks I ran support that. The one exception is the #1325 status above.

Verified claims (no finding): the right-click quick analysis (buffer, viewshed, line of sight) exists in mapmenu.rs. Online Directions exists (cmd/directions.rs). Reload Data exists. rustgis-cli commands and tools exist. search_commands and search_tools exist in the assistant MCP code. The Notice struct has a severity but no kind. The apps/rustgis-web/src/web.rs:1148 autosave comment matches the roadmap. The ogc.rs GeoJSON fallback matches the roadmap. The MBTiles in-memory web read in raster.rs:688 supports the comparison-page change. The reference cases under crates/analysis/tests/reference exist. README and user-guide coverage supports removing the Done list.

Earlier concerns: I left all 23 existing review threads alone. Most are resolved or outdated with an author fix I checked against the code. The one open thread on the expression builder (GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md:159) was answered by the author, and it is a question for maintainers, not a new defect.

- Shared edges: moving one polygon boundary moves its neighbour's too

Open part dropped, and the wording overstates what works (Bugs/docs, confidence ~80%). The old line said "different vertex densities and linked insertion/deletion remain open". This version drops that, and reads as if moving one boundary already moves its neighbour's too. docs/user-guide/editing.md (around lines 168-171) says the opposite: the edit moves coincident vertices only, does not insert or remap missing ones, and "the two boundaries can separate". Per the page's own rule, the open part should stay on the page. Suggested wording (keep #872 only if it covers these):

Suggested change
- Shared edges: moving one polygon boundary moves its neighbour's too
([#872](https://github.com/opengeos/RustGIS/issues/872)); coincident vertices already move

- Shared edges: coincident vertices move together (`edit.moveSharedVertex`, Shared Vertices).
Boundaries with different vertex densities can separate, and linked insertion and deletion
remain open ([#872](https://github.com/opengeos/RustGIS/issues/872)).

Fixed in b4db25f. The first clause was the goal, not a claim about today, so it now reads "Shared edges, so that moving one polygon boundary moves its neighbour's too (#872)", followed by what works (coincident vertices, with Shared Vertices on) and the open parts you named: boundaries with different vertex densities separate, and linked insertion and deletion remain open.

Code review

This PR changes only docs (ROADMAP.md, GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/comparison/geolibre.md), so the checks were on links, code claims and whether open items survive the rewrite.

Bugs

  • Open shared-edge limits dropped from ROADMAP.md (~80%). The old line kept "different vertex densities and linked insertion/deletion remain open". The new line reads as if moving one boundary moves its neighbour's too, which docs/user-guide/editing.md (~lines 168-171) says is not true. Posted as an inline comment with a suggested replacement.

Security

  • None found. The diff contains no code or executable content.

Performance

  • None. Docs only.

Quality

  • Garbled sentence in the "Projects, saved files" section (~55%). The bullet at ROADMAP.md:114-115 reads "read one release before it is written; a reference system: named connections, copies that remember their source…". The fragment does not say what the item is. Left for the release quality pass.

AGENTS.md

  • Links and anchors checked: maintaining.md#who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, #saved-files-and-settings, contributing.md#ribbon-guidelines, README.md#features, user-guide/index.md, CONTRIBUTING.md#where-code-comes-from, and the AGENTS.md section anchors all resolve.
  • Theme labels checked: every _Roadmap: …_ label in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md names a heading that exists in ROADMAP.md.
  • Marker rules checked: the _Decide first_ items (Coord, Feature, field types, storage) match the lead's list in docs/maintaining.md. The minRustgisVersion claim matches the two-maintainer list.
  • Code claims checked: MAX_LIMIT is 500,000 on wasm and 2,000,000 otherwise. visits_chunks exists on the GeoPackage, FlatGeobuf and Parquet sources. The MBTiles "held in memory" claim in crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs supports the comparison-page change.
  • Not verified: search_commands/search_tools and rustgis-cli tools could not be fully confirmed by grep, and issue states need network access.

Re-raised concerns

  • I left alone the earlier threads that the author answered and that have no new evidence. That covers 19 threads in total, with the Underway definition, the Decide-first wording and the GDA/[Bug]: Load Off-Map Data #661 notes among them.

Code review

Bugs: No new findings. The checks I ran against the code all hold:

  • Notices have no kind field (Notice in crates/engine/src/lib.rs has text, error and severity), so the --strict item's claim that notices carry no kind is accurate. (High confidence.)
  • The MBTiles change in docs/comparison/geolibre.md is supported: crates/engine/src/cmd/raster.rs:688 says an MBTiles archive is "held in memory and drawn as a tile layer." (High confidence.)
  • The browser autosave comment at apps/rustgis-web/src/web.rs:1148 still cites [Feature]: Autosave and crash recovery #873, which the roadmap already discusses in its thread. Left alone.

Security: None. The diff is markdown only.

Performance: None. The diff is markdown only.

Quality: No new findings. Every _Roadmap: …_ label in GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md now names a theme heading that exists in ROADMAP.md, and no other file links to removed ROADMAP headings (Next, Done, Contributing, Solid ground). Old theme names still appear only in the removed text. (High confidence.)

AGENTS.md: No new findings. The new links resolve: docs/maintaining.md#who-approves-a-coordinate-first-change, README.md#features and docs/user-guide/index.md all exist. The minRustgisVersion rule that ROADMAP cites is in docs/maintaining.md. I did not confirm that the same section says "two maintainers" (low-impact detail, not checked).

I posted no inline comments, because I found nothing new that meets the bar for one.

Prior concerns: I left 25 earlier review threads alone, because each is either already fixed, answered by the author, or resolved. The open question on the expression-builder omission (GEOLIBRE_PARITY.md line 159) is a planning decision the author has already said belongs to the maintainers, so I did not re-raise it.
