[Alan Boudreault]

For those who are running a Ubuntu machine and would like to test the 
mapserver 5.6.0-rc1 release, you can simply add the following line in 
the "/etc/apt/sources.list" file:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-testing/ubuntu 
<codename> main
(Where codename is hardy, jaunty or karmic.)
and type: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install cgi-mapserver
