CoMaps: A Community Fork of Organic Maps Takes Off

The community-driven fork of Organic Maps, CoMaps, is progressing rapidly. Built on principles of transparency, community decision-making, non-profit status, open-source, and privacy, the project is focusing on establishing its foundation and technology. The first release is underway. A community vote for the project's final name will conclude May 20th on Codeberg. CoMaps welcomes contributions in development, governance, outreach, and donations. Negotiations with Organic Maps shareholders have stalled; Viktor seeks to retain full control, leaving the future of Organic Maps uncertain.
