Release 0.5.1

by Artem Pavlenko on April 15, 2008

Hello all, I'm pleased to announce 0.5.1 release.

This is a minor bugfix release; it is a recommended upgrade for users of 0.5.0. This release includes the following changes:

builds with GCC 4.3
re-enables regex support, which was inadvertently disabled in 0.5.0
add better error handling to shapeindex
support ppc64 builds
fix division by zero error in placement_finder.cpp with multiple loops

Big thanks to Dominic Hargreaves for making it happen!

Mapnik consulting

by Artem Pavlenko on March 11, 2008

Hello all!
I would like to introduce Mapnik Consulting . I have been consulting for a few years now, but I think the time has come to move things up a gear. Have a look, it even has 'rounded' corners:).

While Mapnik itself plays a central role, my consultancy goes beyond just rendering maps. We offer a wide range of geospatial services.

This in no way means that Mapnik will be overlooked, if anything I'm hoping to increase the pace of development!

Cheers!
