Since this real new I haven't had the chance to look closely at the
implementation. I would imagine we'd just add an antialias flag to the
STYLE object. This is a major addition to GD, one that should be added
to MapServer prior to the 3.7 release in my opinion.

Developers, this really makes GD 2.0 attractive to users and along with
24-bit support and the freetype fixes warrants dumping GD 1.x support.
What do folks think?

Hi there,

i found on the GD-Website (http://www.boutell.com/gd/) the news that
antialiasing is now possible ("... 2.0.12 features clipping,
antialiased
line drawing,...") .

I don't know how complicated  all the programming-stuff is, but
which priority have this feature for the next release?
