[mapserver-dev] MapServer 5.6.6 release

[Daniel Morissette]

Hi PSC,

I see that the OSGeo Live DVD team is planning its feature freeze for 
Jan 31st, and to make sure the version of MapServer that is included 
will contain the latest fixes, I propose that we release MapServer 5.6.6 
with what is currently in SVN branch-5-6 which includes some important 
fixes, a copy of the list is included below.

I have packaged a 5.6.6-rc1 for testing:

http://download.osgeo.org/mapserver/mapserver-5.6.6-rc1.tar.gz

Please test it and report your results here. I'd like to post the 5.6.6 
release on Monday if we have enough positive feedback results by then, 
otherwise that would have to wait until Jan 27-28 since I'll be away 
from Jan 18 to 26.

I start with my +1 to release 5.6.6 based on this 5.6.6-rc1.

Daniel
