[MapServer-dev] branch-8-6 notes for devs

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi all,

Some quick updates:

- as you may have noticed, a first beta went out a few days ago, but an 
issue was quickly found & fixed
- therefore a public beta2 was released today
   - direct link: 
https://download.osgeo.org/mapserver/mapserver-8.6.0-beta2.tar.gz
- branch-8-6 has been created, and we can use the "backport branch-8-6" 
label accordingly for pull requests into that branch
   - the same applies for the documentation (branch-8-6 is now live)

Please test as soon as you can.

Thanks again all,

#foss4g4ever
