[OpenLayers-Users] reproject error

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hey,

it does work if you really want to use it. All you need to do is load
deprecated.js in addition to OpenLayers.js. The reason why deprecated
things are still in the library is backwards compatibility, and since
2.12 you need to load deprecated.js for these things to still work.
You'll find further explanations in the release notes:
https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/blob/master/notes/2.12.md#deprecated-components

Andreas.
