Is Tom A. saying that extension arrays will enable Dask for GeoPandas? https://twitter.com/TomAugspurger/status/1088644514594533376?s=19
@anitagraser not directly. But with his recent work, it should become easier to do. But if you want to play with the geopandas / dask combo, I would still recommend looking at https://github.com/mrocklin/dask-geopandas

@/all PSA:
at FOSS4G 2019 we delivered a 'Doing Geospatial in Python' workshop which was well attended. The workshop is on GitHub and folks can start at https://geopython.github.io/geopython-workshop/ and go from there (you need Docker and docker-compose). Any feedback, suggestions, improvements are appreciated!
In addition, we have a living Geopython presentation at http://geopython.github.io/presentation/ which can be used when describing some projects from the Geopython community (updates welcome).
