[ELGIS] Mapserver 6.4.0

[Milo van der Linden]

Hello Peter,

Thank you for the response. Maybe my question wasn't completely clear. I
will try to rephrase.

Our main goal is to get mapserver 6.4.0 adapted by our linux-it-staff for
this to happen, it would be best if mapserver ended up in the official
redhat repositories, second best would be EPEL, third best is ELGIS. We
will settle for third best and will start the conversation with our
linux-it-staff to have them adapt ELGIS. So;

What are "the most" official ways to get mapserver 6.4.0 into the ELGIS
repository? And is maintainance of ELGIS still active? Is OSGeo in the lead
or someone else?
