Devs,

Some questions about packaging the 6.0 release:

- MS4W has been including the mstilecache utilities for users 
(http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2158), is that 
functionality part of 6.0 now, or must that patch be updated for 6.0?

- which rendering engine should be packaged for 6.0?  (gd, agg, cairo, 
opengl)  Currently MS4W enables GD and AGG...but 6.0 now has options for 
Cairo and OpenGL so I am asking for dev's opinions

- am I correct that Flash support was removed for 6.0, and should it be 
removed from all packager build scripts? (note: aboudreault answered 
this on IRC: "yes")

Do any other packagers have any questions related to packaging MapServer 
6.0?
