Hi Chris,

Paul Spencer sent a good overall technical description of Fusion to  
the mailing list which is available here - take a look part way down  
the Vector Editing thread :

http://www.nabble.com/vector-editing-t2521445s16610.html

If anyone will be in Calgary in May, it will be part of a GeoTec  
Workshop on MapGuide and open source technologies:

+Pages&gid=36119E2AF3234E139C8E8DA7982D3374


To be honest  -- we've been so busy building Fusion, we haven't had  
time to setup some good quality demonstrations! We have several, but  
they are not publicly accessible at this time.

We're just starting into Phase 2 of making this more packageable,  
public demos, and developing a long term technical roadmap including  
determining what would be best maintained in open source within the  
MGOS project vs. as proprietary add-ons.

If anyone is interested in learning more -- contact me off-list and I  
can make arrangements for demonstration and providing further info.

Dave
