of people, including for the first time in the following new regions:

Albania, Belarus, British Virgin Islands, Equatorial Guinea, French
Polynesia,
Guinea-Bissau, Kosovo, Libya, Macedonia (FYROM), Mayotte, Moldova,
Montenegro, Palau, Romania, Serbia, Sudan, Timor-Leste, Vanuatu

For a full, up-to-date list of countries, see this page:

This latest data set comes from August 26, 2009 Map Maker data. All
of
these countries are now also available in Google Earth and Google
Maps for Mobile. Many thanks for all your contributions (especially
all you
Eastern European mappers!), and keep up the great work!

Pitcairn Islands, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Djibouti ...
All these countries are supported. Even Somalia.. However, Turkey is
not supported, which have more population
than sum of the %50 countries in list.

i wonder, why Turkey is not at the list...

Hey Can,

We usually can't comment on future countries, but Turkey is def. on the list - will take some more time but hang in there and keep checking the forums for updates

Hi Cristian,

Satellite tiles in MapMaker have been updated to the latest imagery in Maps.
The imagery is usually updated with a few days after Maps/Earth updates.

Cheers,
Vish

Hi

In the City Zooming Level of my CIty . ( Iran , MAzandaran , BAbol , )
Top Contributors
by reviews, maps and edits isnt Updated .

For Example when you search for "babol , iran " in Google Maps , There
is only name of "Babak" who had just 13 edits in the City .
but for me who have more than 4000 edit in this City , there is not
even the name .!!!!!!!!!

I really need people of my City Undrestand that I myself do the Map of
my city !!!!!!! but after this lot of works ( about 3 month ) there
isnt even my name in Top Contributors
by reviews, maps and edits ,, so how come ?!?

With Regards , Mohammad Reza
