[mapguide-users] MapGuide Open Source 2.2 Release Candidate 4 released

[Trevor Wekel]

Hi Andrew,

I believe there are some IE9 fixes present in the RC4 build and likely more to come.  I was not planning on holding back the 2.2.0 release for IE9 support.  I do agree it is an important feature.  We are already thinking about timing and content for a 2.2.1 bug fix release.

Bug fix release?  What's that?  We haven't had one of those since 2.0.2 (2.5 years ago).  Most open source projects have bug fix releases every quarter.  Releases and bug fixes are certainly one area where funding either by direct contract work or through Sponsorships/Donations would certainly help.

At the moment, we barely manage a single release every year.  The 2.2.0 release has been especially troublesome.  We've generated four release candidates since October.


Regards,
Trevor

Does this RC fix the IE9 problems? I recall reading something on the list that someone had posted about how Mapguide pretty much doesn't work with IE9....Since it's out now, MGOS 2.2 really needs to support it fully. Anyway, just wonrdering! I haven't had a chance to test it out myself quite yet...
