[mapguide-users] .NET Fusion

[Paul Spencer]

Jackie is right, fusion was built by PHP developers :)  We have some  
java experience too, but all our consulting work uses PHP and that's  
where we feel most comfortable.

If anyone wants to tackle porting the backend to a new language (.net  
or java), we would be more than happy to assist and answer questions.

Cheers

Paul
