[mapserver-dev] 5.4 Release Tomorrow?

[Flavio Hendry]

Hi Steve

-1

We installed 5.4 RC2 and stumbled over a nasty incompatibility. It seems
that RC2 now requires the keywords MAP and SYMBOLSET in MapFiles which
were nicely ignored before ... (even in beta2, so it seems a very last
minute change). For us and our clients it would mean updating hundreds
of MapFiles as we ignored them since we use MapServer (2001 or so)......

Mit freundlichem Gruss / Best Regards
Flavio Hendry
