Hi Astrid,

Excellent work on geoportal.de !
I would prefer having Mapbender 3.0 on the disk, since it is supporting 
the German geoportal... just my 2 cents.
If other features are included in the future, point updates will bring 
them in.

The only issue I see is the documentation update.

Cheers,
Angelos
