It will still be possible to turn off unnecessary services >by directly editing serverconfig.ini." If I understand correctly, the idea is to drop the division between support servers and site servers (the former ones doing some services for the latter ones) and to use load balancing as in RFC3, i.e. with multiple site servers, each one with its clients. In RFC42 it is written correctly that this will increase robustness since with support servers if one server fails the same does the entire site since some services are no more available (and the failures are quite common in my tests...). On the contrary with load balancing as in RFC3 the other site servers can continue to serve even if one of them encounters a problem. It seems that RFC3 have been implemented in 1.2, because in RFC3 it is written "Proposed milestone: 1.2 and Implementation Status: completed". And round robin seems to work, but there is some problem with sessions. It is a pity, since multiple servers may be useful to increase robustness (that is quite poor) and performance (that is extremely poor w.r.t. MapGuide 6.5). Probably I should move to MapGuide OS 2.x...
