[mapserver-users] Release of MapServer 6.0.2 and 5.6.8

[Daniel Morissette]

The MapServer team announces the release of MapServer versions 6.0.2 and 
5.6.8.

No new functionality has been added. 6.0.2 is a maintenance release that 
fixes a few issues found since 6.0.1 including a recently discovered 
security vulnerability in the handling of WFS filters inside a SLD. The 
list of fixes since 6.0.1 is included at the end of this message.

Versions 5.6.8 includes fixes for the same WFS Filter security 
vulnerability plus a few bug fixes that were backported since the last 
official release. See the 5.6.8 HISTORY.TXT file for additional information.
