Folks,

For those who interested, I've now added the initial revision of the OGR MS
SQL Spatial driver to the GDAL repository. For further information please
refer to the driver information
page<http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_mssqlspatial.html>
.
Working binaries (which always contain all the recent fixes) can be
downloaded from the daily build system available at:
http://vbkto.dyndns.org/sdk/

Since I didn't have the chance to test with all kind of the fancy spatial
data types any feedback on the potential issues are graciously accepted.

Upon the experiences gathered when writing this driver, I'm also planning to
add support for accessing the native SqlGeometry/SqlGeography serialization
format in the MapServer sql2008 driver which appears to provide a
significant increment in the performance of the data retrieval.


Best regards,

Tamas
