[mapguide-users] Pulling USERNAME from MapGuide

[Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S]

That functionality is not yet implemented, but it is suggested:
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/MapGuideRfc20

It is proposed for the 1.2 release, but it is already late, so maybe it
will be postponed.
In the meantime, you can work around the problem with Hidekazu's method.

Regards, Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S
