Hi all: The MapServer PSC is pleased to announce the release of the first beta
for the 5.4.0 release. This will likely be the last major release in the 5.x
series as we are planning for a 6.0 release later this year. Important new
functionality includes:
- support for WMS 1.3.0 (RFC 30)
- style-level geometry transformations for enhanced output rendering (RFC 48)
- expanded URL mapfile configuration (RFC 44)
- numerous symbology, labeling and cartography improvements (RFC 49)
- major re-factoring of the PostGIS driver code
As usual there an a large number of additional small enhancements and bug
fixes. For a complete list is the HISTORY.TXT file at:
