We’re delighted to begin the October newsletter with a gracious and hearty Thank You to Meta for their unwavering support as a sponsor of MapLibre in 2024! We look forward to what is to come.

We have released versions 5.0.0-pre.2, 5.0.0-pre.3 and 5.0.0-pre.4 this month. One interesting feature that was recently added was the support for pitch larger than 90 degrees.

We have introduced some breaking changes in these versions as was planned for version 5, so make sure to take a look at the changelog for more details. There are still open issues with globe and other improvements we plan to add as part of this major release. Stay tuned! See the initial post in the following issue to see the current status.

@josxha is conducting a brief survey to gather feedback on MapLibre Flutter. The survey takes only about 2 minutes to complete and will help to identify strengths and areas for improvement. If you’ve worked with MapLibre on Flutter, your input is highly appreciated. You can participate here.

The upcoming monthly meetings will be held as usual on the second Wednesday of the month. These calls are open to everyone, and we encourage you to join us and say hello!
