[mapserver-dev] MS SQL Server 2008 support?

[Graham Davis]

Hi,

I am looking at MS SQL Server 2008 support in Mapserver for a client.  
They currently don't have SQL Server 2008 (so I am unable to test) but 
they are interested in how well it is supported with Mapserver.  I know 
that other servers like GeoServer only have very basic support for this 
database so far (no support for spatial indexes or WKB).  How complete 
is Mapserver's support of this database? 

I've seen this plugin:  
http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-38.html  and understand this 
is the only SQL Server support so far.  Is that correct?  Are there any 
known issues or unsupported parts of SQL Server 2008 spatial with this 
plugin?

Thanks in advance,
