Compiling FDO for version 3.1

I have found the FDOOGR provider, that enables me to use MapInfo TAB
files directly in MapGuide OS/EP.
Unfortunately, there are a few problems with the projections WKT in
OGR/PROJ.4/Mentor-CS.
So I am trying to build the FDOOGR provider, but with code, that allows
for a simple substitution of the WKT, to satisfy Mentor-CS.
I have sucesfully built the FDOOGR provider, but the FDO version in SVN
is now 3.2.
This may work well with MapGuide OS, but since MapGuide EP is built with
FDO 3.1, the DLL doesn't work.
Looking through the SVN for FDO, I can't find the revision to use.
Basically, what I need, is the header files, along with fdo.lib,
giscommon.lib, gisgeometry.lib.
It seems that there was a rename from Gis* to Fdo* at some point (ea.
GisString -> FdoString).
So, my main question is:
*How do I get a hold on the FDO header and lib files, that were used for
MapGuide Enterprise?*
For future use, I would like to know:
What is the official/most apporiate support channel for MapGuide EP?
What is the official/most apporiate support channel for FDOOGR?
And, finally, theses questions arose, while trying to build the FDOOGR:
Will Autodesk release a new MapGuide EP with FDO 3.2, or is it possible
to update the current release?
How does Autodesk plan on updating the MapGuide EP, as it obviously has
numerous bugs, that are fixed in MapGuide OS?
I someone has a better idea, for translating/substituting the
projections from OGR to Mentor-CS, please let me know.
