[MapServer-dev] MapServer 8.2 Release Plan

[Steve Lime]

Regarding:

https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/issues/6907 "Queries that find no
results not returning and error message"

I do have a proposed fix locally and I just need to prepare a pull request.
Been sitting on it for some time now, just limited on time...  I did have a
couple of other small adds:

   1. https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/issues/6968
   2. Adding some template tag capabilities for pass-through variables,
   similar to what's supported for item tags such as pattern matching and
   default values.

The first one should be relatively easy and a nice add... Jeff's proposed
schedule seems ok.
