Based on the recent license change by Mapbox[0], it means that Amazon Location's tutorial[1] suggesting to use Mapbox GL JS should be updated, right?
i.e. using Amazon Location with the v2 Mapbox GL JS would also require paying Mapbox for every map load, or you'd need to use the pre v2 version (the last "Open Source one") of the Mapbox GL JS library, correct?
EDIT: as pointed by @kylebarron below, Amazon specifically mentions "Amazon Location supports open source versions of Mapbox GL JS (v1.13.0 or earlier)." [2] which is the last Open Source version.

- gregsadetsky 6y agoThank you, great observation! "Amazon Location supports open source versions of Mapbox GL JS (v1.13.0 or earlier)." Cheers
- cma 6y agoI wonder if this was the whole reason Mapbox made their change?
- laingc 6y agoIt absolutely is.
