v6.0.0

Release v6.0.0

The Vega-Altair team is pleased to announce the release of version 6.0.0. Firstly, we are grateful for the many returning contributors (@franzhaas, @dangotbanned, @dsmedia, @joelostblom, @tempdata73, @mattijn, @jonmmease, @eitanlees, @kurtmckee, @MarcoGorelli), and a special shoutout to all the new contributors (@JasonnnW3000, @edmundmiller, @jannisko, @stanmart, @star1327p, @baldwint, @daizutabi, @azjps, @joaopalmeiro, @bobot). You are all awesome!

In short what is included with the version 6 release of Altair.

• we now compile against Vega-Lite version 6 (to be specific, version 6.1.0) and provide support for Python 3.14.
• we have a new datasets module, altair.datasets, lazily access to datasets from https://github.com/vega/vega-datasets.
• we are now thread-safe, altair specifications should be stable after re-running.
• we improved docs and included new examples, eg. this faceted choropleth of habitat species across geographical counties https://altair-viz.github.io/gallery/maps_faceted_species.html.
• we improved the typing experiences.
• we migrated to uv as part of the infrastructure modernization and now have automated weekly builds.

We test all changes thoroughly, but nevertheless, if you encounter any issue or like to start a discussion. Please feel free!
