As you may be aware, JavaScript Maps API v2 was scheduled for shutdown on May 19, 2013. After listening to your feedback we decided toextend the deprecation timeline by six months, to November 19, 2013 to allow more time for migration to v3 of the API.
On November 19, 2013 we will deploy a JavaScript wrapper that attempts to automagically turn remaining v2 maps into v3 maps. Though we expect this wrapper to work for most simple maps, we cannot guarantee that your maps will continue to function. We therefore highly recommend that you migrate to v3 before November 19. The good news is that Google Maps JavaScript API v3 is more robust and feature rich than v2, and we’ve written a guide to assist the migration.
We are a news organization and not particularly tech savvy. Will we need to do anything on the web site to keep our current and future maps working?
Thanks.
Hello Chouser,
I would appreciate any efforts hat you use and I would use the new version of GMapEZ

Chris..... it's been ages since I worked with GMapEZ. What's the secret to setting the zoom in closer? I am attempting to put a pinpoint on a location on Aruba, but either nothing happens - meaning I see the street map of Oranjestad, but no pin -- or I get a map of Fort Wayne.
Hello,
Any guess on when the production version will be available? Finding that the beta version does not work in IE 8 when using both regular mode and compatibility mode. Also does not work in IE 10 in compatibility mode only. Seems to work fine in Chrome and Firefox :)
Thanks again for posting this update. It has definitely taken the pressure off getting a solution of my own out for all my sites. I sent on a donation, thanks!The only problem I'm having with the beta version is that when I click a link outside the map window to open an info window, the info window opens but the page doesn't scroll back up to the map like it used to. So it's not entirely clear to the user that the link they've clicked has done anything.You can see an example of this on one of my sites Puerto Vallarta Satellite -- open the homepage and then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click a link for an attraction (e.g. the Santa Barbara Theatre at the end). It doesn't appear to do anything when you click the link but then if you scroll back up to the map it has opened the requested info window. If there's a quick fix for this, it would be appreciated!
