 * Added a converter for loading GeoTIFF using xarray/rioxarray (#193).
 * Update notebook process forms. See `client.gui` function.
+* Add support for Path objects in `utils.guess_type`
 * Support multiple mimetypes in converters. API change: mimetype (str) replaced by mimetypes (tuple)
 * Removed geojson mimetypes from BINARY_MIMETYPES so it's embedded as a string rather than bytes.
