Reviewing and learning more about MapLibre and how it works. Currently, we download the world map. So, researched approaches for downloading/extracting sub-regions, etc.

Don't spend time on this - only the review :) I know it's tempting to go down that rabbit hole, but we need to focus on the alpha2.

The implementation would require a lot of changes since it’s currently built directly in the frontend rather than the plugin. I am assuming this is more of a POC and not an actual merge candidate? Please confirm so I can review accordingly. Also, scheduled downloads for world maps (will take ~6 hours), so I’ll be able to run it tomorrow.

Yes, as mentioned in my other email, it's a draft MR. He had a timebox of 10h, with instruction to post what he had in a MR once he reaches the 10h. So it's an evaluation of the work done during those 10h, not the final result. We do need to review fully though to make sure to identify the rest of the work that remains to do. What Quinn can do now we would give it to him to do now, and if there are tasks that are less urgent you and Milos can take them on, but in a later release. Also please comment directly on Quinn's MR for those discussions, so he can follow too :) -- Xavier Whitebox.aero <https://whitebox.aero/>
