Aug 1, 2025Delivered a targeted feature upgrade and code refactor in the bokeh/bokeh repository for 2025-08. Upgraded the Flatbush library to the latest version and removed all custom Flatbush modifications, refactoring spatial indexing to consume the updated API directly. This simplification reduces maintenance overhead and aligns the project with upstream changes, facilitating future upgrades and stability.
