1) country regions are now interactive on the globe, just mouse over a country;

2) select a country with a mouse click;

3) there is a new 2D source world map plane with a slight X-axis rotation;

4) new map color scheme with different strokes and fill colors for the up, down and selected country states;

5) country tooltips display was added too, although it’s in French;

Click on the screenshot below to see it in action.

V.2 will see some Away3D HoverCamera action to orbit the globe on mouse move and clicks, English tooltips for countries with ISO 3166 2-letter country code for region ids, and hopefully some open-source Degrafa world map and globe code to share.
