Updating MapServer Source - How is this done?

Hi Bob,

it is "common practice" to open up a bugzilla entry for this, and after  
that you might send an announce e-mail with a link to the bugzilla entry  
to the Mapserver-dev list with a summary.

Somebody with CVS commit rights (most probably the default person assigned  
to the Mapserver module for which the patch applies) could pick up your  
patch/change and then include it in the main sources.

Best regards,
Bart
