[Geomoose-users] Scalebar in GM2

[Dan Little]

I've logged the lack of graphic scalebar as a ticket.  Ticket #9, in fact.  I've tagged it for the 2.2 release becauseI I'm hoping to get the 2.0.1 release rounded up yet this week (yikes it's Thursday).  There is some testing being finished and we've updated the package build system.
