[OSGeo-Announce] MapBuilder 1.5 Released

[Frank Warmerdam]

The MapBuilder community is proud to announce the release of MapBuilder
1.5, the last official stable release provided by the current
development team. See
http://www.communitymapbuilder.org/display/MAP/EndOfLife for more
information.

The new release is available for download at

   http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAP/Downloads

MapBuilder 1.5 is based on OpenLayers 2.8 and was tested on Internet
Explorer (versions 6, 7 and 8) and Mozilla Firefox (versions 2.x and
3.x). This ensures that users can keep using Mapbuilder for some time,
and extend their applications with the rich feature set of OpenLayers 2.8

Since the last stable release 1.0.1, there have been significant changes
and improvements, most of them related to switching from Mapbuilder's
own rendering to OpenLayers. See
http://svn.codehaus.org/mapbuilder/tags/mapbuilder-lib-1_5-release/mapbuilder/CHANGES 

for the full change log.

If you are upgrading applications from 1.5-alpha1 or earlier, see
http://communitymapbuilder.org/display/MAP/Upgrading+from+pre-1.5 for a
list of required configuration changes.

Regards,
Andreas Hocevar.
