2.1 is now live. It includes Ant's recent changes (thanks!) and a bunch 
of other stuff. In brief:

- New Nominatim-powered Search box (click the magnifying glass icon)
- Yahoo component isn't loaded until you actually select Yahoo imagery
- Delete relation option (in the "Relations actions" menu in the 
Advanced tag display)
- Load relation by ID
- New quadrilateral drawing tool: select a POI (one corner), shift-click 
a blank area of the map (opposite corner), drag mouse up and down 
(choose angle). Intended as a quick way to turn POIs into building areas
- And a bunch of small improvements

For those of you tracking the code: I've also started work on a new 
branch ('refactor' at https://github.com/systemed/potlatch2) to form the 
basis of a future version. This includes a huge bunch of under-the-hood 
changes with two aims:

- Allow multiple Maps to be displayed in one P2 instance
- Bring VectorLayers and Connections together in the Connection classes

The code is in a very half-baked stage so far after just a day's coding, 
though it is at least loading the map again. You can see more of the 
progress in the REFACTOR.txt file 
(https://github.com/systemed/potlatch2/blob/refactor/REFACTOR.txt).

cheers
Richard
