> Hi devs,
>
> I'd like to get this in for 5.4:
> http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-49.html
>
> wrapping up the comments from the review period, I think there isn't
> any issue preventing a vote:
>
> * possible values for LABELMETHOD (the default is to use cog) :
> awaiting implementation, very probably postponed to after 5.4 (unless
> Steve planned to implement this soon ?)
>
> * labelObj for layer: implementation postponed to after 5.4
>
> * fractional values also for pattern,gap, offset:  a good candidate
> for 6.0 (when pattern and gap would be moved to the styleObj?)
>
> * there was concensus for adding parametered scaling, usefull for
> thematic mapping (eg size proportional to a feature attribute)
>   - by allowing simple expressions, eg SIZE  ( 18 + [poptotal] * ((
> 43-18)/(5000-30000))  )
>   - or by adding pseudoitems at the layer level:
>
> PSEUDOITEM
>  'mySize' (mrange([itemname], mininput, maxinput, minoutput,
> maxoutput))
>  'myText (commify(round([itemname], 2)) + ' ac')
> END
>
> LABELITEM 'myText'
> CLASS
>  STYLE
>   COLOR 255 0 0
>   SIZE [mySize]
>  END
>  LABEL
>   ...
>  END
> END
>
> this enhancement will be addressed in a specific rfc.
