Hi,
=20
I don't have experiance with Mapserver, but have to investigate the
possibilities for use of Mapserver along with ESRI ArcSDE based on an
Informix database. Here are a few questions:

1.	What is the current status of Mapserver's support to ArcSDE? Are
there any important restrictions/bugs? Is Mapserver in connection with
ArcSDE stable enough to be used for professional applications?
2.	Is it possible with Mapserver, to display a background map in raster
format overlaid by a layer with customer objects having
"Gauss-Kr=FCger-Streifen 3 / Bessel" coordinates?
3.	The map representation is required to be switchable by button
between two reference systems: a) Gauss-Kr=FCger-Streifen 3 / Bessel =
and b)
UTM-Streifen 32, ETRS89. What does this mean for Mapserver and ArcSDE? =
Do I
have to use two different kind of maps or is it possible to transform =
from
one reference system to the other? If yes, how?

Thanks a lot for your help.
Wolfram
