[mapserver-dev] Fate of MyGIS support in 6.0

Well, that makes it double-okay to pull it. There is also MySQL join support that may be more widely used. I'm thinking
that may be worth keeping. There's probably minor dependence on mapmygis.c that would need to be remedied...

Anyone want to do this?

Steve

we have already voted on removing it, although the code itself hasn't
been removed yet.
