[mapguide-users] Simple OGR FDO question

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

If you create a new OGR featuresource, simply set the "DataSource" 
parameter to point to the KML file.
Be sure to set "ReadOnly" to TRUE.

If you use Maestro, you can upload the file, or enter the path to the 
KML file in the UI.
Behind the scenes it just sets the DataSource parameter for you.
