I first want to say I'm truly blown away by what you've built here. This is really, really impressive.\n> \n> Anyhow, I'm curious to know if there is any interest in support non-mercator projections? I checked out the transformation logic and the projection appears to be hard-coded.\n> \n> I'm sure there are optimizations to be had by assuming a single projection, but it would be really neat to be able to provide mapbox-gl with custom projection functions: not only would this enable other \"common\" map formats, but would open the door for some really creative visualizations (check out this and this).\n> \n> It would also make mapbox-gl an ideal candidate for non-geo-based maps, like a cross-section of a human body with organs, circulatory system, nervous system, etc.\n> \n> Thanks again for all the cool tech, and for developing in the open!\n> \n> Cheers,\n> Mike\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/issues/comments/298077830","html_url":"https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/issues/3184#issuecomment-298077830","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js/issues/3184","id":298077830,"user":{"login":"pwilczynski","id":833760,"avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/833760?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski","html_url":"https://github.com/pwilczynski","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/pwilczynski/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2017-04-28T18:49:24Z","updated_at":"2017-04-28T18:49:24Z","body":"Hey all!
