Greetings, This is a follow up from our last email some months ago (and a crosspost). You may already have seen today's announcement from Legal about the upcoming changes to the Maps Terms of Use. Here is an extra heads-up that Wikimedia Maps are transitioning towards a more modern architecture. The first phase of this transition will be replacing Tilerator [0] with Tegola [1] as our vector tile server. This is a change in the Maps infrastructure, so there should be little to no impact to the end users’ experience. It is important that we are able to provide software that is sustainable to support, before we can guarantee a reliable user experience. Wikimedia Maps aim to provide Wikimedia users a consistent experience contributing to and learning about geoinformation. To achieve this goal, we will empower those engineers maintaining the Wikimedia Maps infrastructure to do so with ease and low effort. If you want to learn more, please head to mediawiki.org [2], where you will also find a Questions & Answers section. Thanks, and take care, Erica Litrenta (on behalf of the Product Infrastructure team) [0] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Maps/Tilerator [1] https://tegola.io/ [2] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Maps/2021_modernization_plan -- ------------------------------ Erica Litrenta (she/her) Manager, Community Relations Specialists Wikimedia Foundation <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Elitre_(WMF)> _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
