[mapguide-users] Enterprise vs. OpenSource

[Berdel, Brian]

Thanks, Paul. That is basically what I thought...I just wanted someone
else to verify it for me!

Brian,

I think it depends on whether any of the extra features of the  
Enterprise edition are important to you or not.  If you don't care  
about the differences between the projection libraries (Mentor vs  
PROJ), the commercial Oracle, SQL and Raster providers, and the  
bundled support, then you probably won't notice the difference :)

Oh, except that you will probably have access to wonderful new  
features in the open source version a little more quickly!  And you  
get to converse with us on this list too ...

Cheers

Paul
