I'm pleased to announce that cartopy v0.12.0rc1 has been tagged.
This release has focused on improving the geometry projection stability,
improving interfaces for data ingestion, rounding
off Python 3 support, and generally improving the breadth of the gallery.
A full overview of what's new in this release can be found at

intuitive interface
- powerful vector data handling by integrating shapefile reading with
Shapely capabilities
