[mapguide-users] 2.1 Beta (Fusion) Problems

I'm not sure what the timeframe for a MapGuide 2.1 release is, I  
really hope we can fix up the fusion release to coincide or at least  
be a LOT less broken for inclusion in 2.1.  While I don't want to  
delay MGOS 2.1 for Fusion or make their schedules interdependent, the  
current sense I get is that we really need to spend some time getting  
Fusion more solid before it can be released.

We are discussing the possibility of abandoning the current attempt at  
a fusion 2.0 release and starting over again from the trunk version,  
which has some new functionality and changes which either fix bugs or  
render them obsolete.  This would also focus the efforts of any  
developers willing to participate on the current state of things and  
hopefully make better use of their time.  I am hoping to have some  
time from myself and a couple of DM folks to put into Fusion in the  
next couple of weeks in order to get a release into much better shape.

Sorry, I haven't really answered your question - I guess it all  
depends on MGOS 2.1 schedule at this point.

Cheers

Paul
