Hi,

MapServer 4.6.0-beta2 is now available for download on the MapServer

beta in our plan for a MapServer 4.6.0 release early June, just in time
for MUM3. Once again, we invite experienced users to contribute to the
release process by testing the betas with their applications and
reporting any issues via bugzilla.

The list of fixes since beta1 is included below.
