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

[Andrew DeMerchant]

I'm not setup to build - so I can't do any patching...I could certainly 
do some testing though, if someone could get me a test build.

In other news, I just installed IE9 and tested out on my server which is 
running MGOS v2.2.0.5354 (I think that's RC2)....worked perfectly fine 
for me. My site's AJAX though - could be that the guy that posted about 
this problem was either a) using Fusion (which I can't test right now, 
since I don't have any Fusion sites), or b) had a beta of IE9 which was, 
indeed, broken.....or maybe c) that the version after 2.2.0.5354 breaks 
IE9 compatibility, I suppose. Though, that seems unlikely.

Anyway - I just wanted to give my 2cents on this...I just think that we 
should make sure that either MGOS 2.2 supports all major browsers out of 
the box, or else gets a patch asap - I'm not sure when IE9 will be 
pushed out through Windows Update and WSUS, but when it does, we need to 
be sure that MGOS is up to snuff for it.....like I said, from what I can 
tell at the moment, it seems to work fine (or worst case, worked fine 
very recently).

Releases and bug fixes are certainly one area where funding either by direct contract work or through Sponsorships/Donations would certainly help.

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...
