Launchpad 2.1.9: profile page maps and more karma

["Matthew Revell" <matthew.revell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Launchpad team is proud to announce the release of
Launchpad 2.1.9!

In this release, we have:

 * Karma for code review: earn karma when you take part in code
   reviews in Launchpad. For more on code review,
   see https://news.launchpad.net/?p=91

 * Maps on profile pages: see straight away where in the world
   other people are thanks to new profile page maps.

Setting your location on the map is easy: visit your profile page
(https://launchpad.net/people/+me) and click to plant your flag.
It'll show up both on your own profile and on the map of any
teams you're part of.

The maps aren't just for fun: they also make it easier to decide
on meeting times and possible locations for physical meet-ups.
Take a look at the Launchpad Developers team for an example:
