I have finished an update of the maps. Since the hierarchy was created a bit differently, few notes:

* Update the lists of countries before downloading anything. URL has changed to ensure that you do get a version that your app is expecting to get

* Some regions have different internal IDs (Russia, US/Regions, and possibly few others). To fix it, unsubscribe and then resubscribe again. For re-subscription, its better if you leave the country page and select it again for subscription in the dialogue covering all countries. Its a problem with the current update that should not be there in future, so let's live with this inconvenience.

* For all other regions, its sufficient to open a country page, press Unsubscribe and then Subscribe to initiate an update. Note that the corresponding country will be marked as an unavailable before you download a new version.

* All updates are done when you authorize the download.

* There are much more regions now with subdivisions in UK, Germany and few other countries. This is done by following Geofabrik.

* Full Russia, Canada (US, as before) are not provided. If you use them, let me know and we can try to put them back. I assumed that you cannot drive during one day through them.

In the next release, I plan to make updates easier by adding a corresponding dialogue. Then this manual Unsubscribe/Subscribe cycle would disappear.
