Hi everyone,

we are happy to announce the MapProxy 1.3.0 release!

The latest release is available PyPI:

To update within you virtualenv:

$ pip install --upgrade MapProxy

The documentation is available at:
http://mapproxy.org/docs/1.3.0/

Some new features:

RESTful WMTS
------------

The MapProxy WMTS now also supports the RESTful API. This service
also supports custom URL templates for your service.

http://mapproxy.org/docs/1.3.0/services.html#restful

CouchDB cache backend
---------------------

You can now use a CouchDB as a backend for tile caches.
Each cache gets stored into a separate database and you can
configure the layout of the URLs of each tile. You can also
add additional metadata for each tile.

`mapproxy-util serve-multiapp-develop` tool
-------------------------------------------

The new command is similar to `serve-develop` but it starts a
MultiMapProxy instance.
