[Mapserver-users] WFS support

[Amit S BEHERE]

Hi,

There is not a win32 binary for Mapserver 4.0.1 (with WFS support). Is
there a way I can use the the source for mapserver 4.0.1 to build it for
windows. If there is, is there any documentation available regarding the
same. When might the binary for Mapserver 4.0.1 be released ?

Thanks,
Amit Behere.
