[Live-demo] Re: [mapserver-dev] We need some help getting mapserver 6 onto OSGeo-Live

[Cameron Shorter]

Steve,
4 July: (this Monday) Feature Freeze
18 July: (under 3 weeks) English doc deadline
1 August: Everything to UAT

If 6.0.1 is a bug fix only, we could slip the 4 July date a few days, 
but I'd prefer not to slip much more than that.
