[mapguide-internals] MapGuide RFC 17 - Map Space Line Widths

[Jason Birch]

This is a reasonably important feature for me.
 
If both RFCs are likely to be added to the code base and supported in the authoring tools at the same time, then it doesn't make sense to duplicate the effort.
 
If there's a year difference (in Enterprise time) between the two, I would imagine that others like myself would be appreciative of seeing the smaller change earlier.  But this has to be weighed against the cost of the change, in terms of other important features that could be worked on in its place.

I'll just throw this out there....

Given that we're planning on revamping the entire stylization anyway with RFC14 (which supports map space line widths), does it make sense to spend any time improving the current stylization?

        I thought about that as I was writing up the RFC. If we rev the schema
        version, it shouldn't be necessary, since whatever tool is used to
        update existing repositories would add the new element.
       
        And...
       
        If we don't rev the schema, it would go into an <ExtendedData1> element,
        which is optional anyway - though <SizeContext> should strictly be
        optional inside that element in case the schema needs to be extended
        still further.
       
        Chris.

        Chris,
       
        Should the <SizeContext> element be optional with an assumed default to
        device space for compatibility reasons?
       
        Thanks,
        Bob
