The v2 documentation: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/reference<https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/reference?csw=1> says (and has said in slightly different variations for a while): *Warning:* Version 2 of the Google Maps JavaScript API *is no longer available for new applications* and will be turned down for existing applications on November 19, 2013. Please follow the guide to migrate your code <https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/v2tov3> to version 3 <https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/> of the Google Maps JavaScript API. As of November 19, 2013, all applications requesting v2 will be served a special, wrapped version of the v3 API instead. We expect this wrapped version of the API will work for most simple maps, but we strongly encourage you to *migrate to the v3 API immediately*. Google has been broadcasting the deprecation and even individually contacting developers. The have already extended the deadline 6 months and are now promising the v3 "wrapper"; but obviously aren't guarenteeing it. -- Larry > > > Thanks for your reply. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v2" group.
