Version 0.9 (September 12, 2013)
================================
* We are very pleased to announce that Bill Little was added to the cartopy
core development team. Bill has made some excellent contributions to cartopy,
and `his presentation at EuroScipy'13 on
"Iris & Cartopy" <https://www.euroscipy.org/2013/schedule/presentation/35/>`_
was voted best talk of the conference.
* Other talks and tutorials during this release cycle include Phil Elson's `talk at SciPy'13
(with video) <https://conference.scipy.org/scipy2013/presentation_detail.php?id=132>`_,
`Thomas Lecocq's tutorial at EuroSciPy
<https://www.euroscipy.org/2013/schedule/presentation/27/>`_
and a forthcoming `talk at FOSS4G <http://2013.foss4g.org/conf/programme/presentations/29/>`_.
* Christoph Gohlke updated cartopy to support Windows 7.
* The Plate Carree projection was updated to fully handle arbitrary globe definitions.
* Peter Killick updated the Mercator class' default globe to WGS84. His refactor paved the way
for some follow on work to fully implement the Google Spherical Mercator (EPSG:3857) projection.
