Comment (by jmckenna):

 Assefa,

 I think the "mapserver" package should always contain the latest MapServer
 release. (I feel that this is the easiest for users)

 However it seems GDAL has a new named package for each release.  So I am
 confused as to what we should do for the MapServer package.

 I do feel that all packages should follow the same guidelines, which we
 will establish for the OSGeo4W 2.0 release (reboot), as Frank mentioned.
 By the way, proof of this is the QGIS package - I *cannot* understand what
 package to use, there are just too many different packages to pick from.

 For now is it ok if the "mapserver" package contains the latest release?
 (is this easy for you?)  I am in for whatever is easier for you to
 maintain.

 Thanks.

 -jeff
