    Sad, but also funny to see someone revoke an MIT license. Presumably they think that is retroactive as why do it otherwise. Instead of preventing use they just un-invite themselves from any group that wishes to continue it’s open source development.

    I used maps.me for many years, it’s sad what happened. At least we have organic maps.
