Maps and Semantic Maps 0.6.2 released

From the archive: written in 2010 and kept for the record. Much of it is out of date.

Maps and Semantic Maps 0.6.2 are now available for download.

Maps extension for MediaWiki

This release contains improvements to parameter handling, case insensitivity has been re-added, and using default parameters together with named ones will work more intuitive. In Maps the handling of distances has also been considerably improved: there is a new #distance parser function, additional distance related parameters in #geodistance, and new settings that allow you to customize the default distance behaviour. In Semantic Maps a rather important bugfix has been made which solves a problem with editing articles with forms that contain maps that arose in 0.6.1. (changes to Maps, changes to SM). People running 0.6 and 0.6.1 are advised to upgrade. Especially people using Semantic Maps in conjunction with Semantic Forms, as both 0.6 and 0.6.1 contain undesired behaviour in the forms.
