Hi Jeroen,

I actually played around with the Maps 3.x and found it was going through major 
refactoring. And since NYCpedia is heavily dependent on polygons and there was 
already a pending auto-centering patch which we sorely needed, we decided to go 
with 2.x for now.

We realize this will complicate moving to 3.x, but when we saw the thread that 
3.x devt has slowed down a bit and might be for the near future, we decided to 
bite the bullet coz of deadlines on our end.

That's why I added that maybe the community can get together, and help 
fund/advance Maps 3.x.

The polygon labeling and hover features should prove to be compelling new 
additions to Maps 3.x and we want to ultimately contribute it back.

Thanks,
Joel
