Two MapServer websites?

[Howard Butler]

Norbert,

Indeed there are currently two MapServer websites.  The plone site at 
<http://ms.gis.umn.edu> is still in development (user contributions 
welcome!) with the intent that it will live at the same location as 
<http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu> when it is done.  We plan to take care 
to do some URL rewriting to ensure that bookmarks to major documents 
(and links in books :) are not broken when the transition takes 
place.  We are currently in the confusing time where some documents 
that live at one website don't live at the other and vice versa.  Of 
course, this is not ideal.  I don't have a timeframe for when the 
transition will take place, but my hope is that it will be done 
before the end of the year.

Howard
