Hi!
I do not maintain libchamplain, I have requested a release from the maintainer!
About other GNOME apps using Maps. I do unfortunatly not have the time to be a driving force there. I can help out if someone else take lead. I am not sure if them requsting use of the Mapbox API key is warranted or if the usage is small enough that asking OSM for permission is best.
Thanks!

Could you please do a libchamplain release then?
I didn't get around to filing individual bugs yet, but what's the plan
for core GNOME apps like Contacts and Evolution that currently use
libchamplain to try to load Mapquest-provided maps?
I'm thinking it makes sense for the same people that worked with
Mapnik to get GNOME Maps working could ask Mapnik if a few other apps
could be included in the same offer.
Thanks,
