Bill,

There are no upgrade shortcuts.  Download MapServer 4.4.1, configure
and make, then cd mapscript/python and follow the directions in the
README.  If you are using windows, you can grab binaries from Howard
Butler's site:

http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/build_output/4_4_1/full/python/
mapscript-4.3.win32-py2.3-full.exe

That make building mapserver unnecessary, but don't provide any of the
other programs.  I think it is only a typo that says "mapscript-4.3",
Howard?
