This release introduces the concept of API versioning. This allows us to make breaking changes to the API that you can enable in your applications when you are ready. The list of protocol changes are documented in our Migration Guide. V2 brings us in line with the AtomPub specification. Stay tuned for more information about how V2 affects all Google Data APIs on the Data APIs blog.
As promised in the title of this post, the Geo-based search feature requested by Issue 200 has been released using the location and location-radius parameters.
Other issues this release resolves:
We encourage you to migrate to V2 as soon as you can to take advantage of these exciting features. Note that we will no longer be adding new features to V1.
