[mapguide-internals] Re: 32 bit installer on build machine

[Zac Spitzer]

any reason why can't install two versions, ie 2.1 and test 2.2 on the
same machine?

MapGuideOpenSource-2.2.0.4686-Test.exe wouldn't install

We should also add databases with standardized data sets to the build/test environment.  Then we can write a few unit tests for the databases.  This will help ensure that the builds are solid.

It will also allow us to set up a more complete environment.  I sure as heck don't want to maintain four different databases (SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostGIS) just for myself.
