Thank you this is exactly what I needed. It sounds like I can work with svn which should be pretty stable excepting the 2 noted tickets waiting commits and an update to 2.6 should be reasonable painless at this point. The feature editing tools that I have been working with are very nice. Great job and kudos to all for them and the other features I have yet to explore. -Steve W _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
