Why but why?

Gmaps4rails v2 is a huge move.

Actually I just kept the minimum code.

Here are some reasons:

• geocoding is perfectly handled by geocoder
• views helpers created a magic feeling and only confused people
• js base code was made to be changed by people, but people dont want to touch it!
• now js code is very flexible: you can inject your own dependencies without touching the core.
• other map providers should be handled by different gems, like oauth has oauth linked in, oauth facebook ...

I'm deeply sorry if it breaks some of your existing code, but be aware previous versions still exist.

I've kept what was supposed to be the new v2 (one year ago) here
