[mapserver-users] Legend difference in 5.6.1 and 6.4.1

[thomas bonfort]

Could you check if the issue in 6.4 is related to the RESOLUTION parameter
in your mapfile (i.e. remove it and re-run)?
Mapserver 7.0 should be production ready unless you're using its remaining
blocking issue (TIME filters with MSSQL backends).
