[mapguide-users] Problem in loading SDF data in Mapguide Webstudio

[Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S]

MapGuide Studio is a ful product with Autodesk support.
WebStudio is an opensource web based product.
In essence they accomplish the same task, however WebStudio does not 
have any direct funding.
This means that it will not always be stable/updated, unless some 
volunteer does some work on it.

Currently there is no editor for WebLayouts in WebStudio.
This limitiation is quite severe, as the AJAX and DWF viewers are based 
on a WebLayout.
In other words, you will not be able to build a solution that works 
right away, using only WebStudio.

Secondly, there is no legal way for an opensource product to support 
proprietary formats (such as DWG and ArcSDE).
MapGuide Studio can overcome this limitation, since it is not open source.

Regards, Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S
