The MapServer Team is pleased to announce the release of MapServer
6.0.0-rc2.
The 6.0 release introduces important changes in key components of the
MapServer core (rendering, query and expressions), and for this reason
we count on you, MapServer power users, to help test the release in your
respective environments and provide feedback (through the users list or
Trac tickets).
We had to issue a new release candidate since a few important issues
were reported and fixed in rc1. If all goes well and no blocker issues
are reported, then this release candidate could lead us to a final 6.0.0
release next week. The full release plan which also includes the list of
new features and changes in this release is available at:
http://mapserver.org/trunk/development/release/release-plan-6.0.html
The list of fixes since the last release candidate is attached at the
end of this message. For a complete list see the HISTORY.TXT file at:
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/tags/rel-6-0-0-rc2/mapserver/HISTORY.TXT
We have started working on a 5.6 -> 6.0 migration guide. This document
contains important notes on backwards incompatibilities or other changes
required when upgrading to 6.0. The latest version is available online at:
http://mapserver.org/trunk/MIGRATION_GUIDE.html
The source for this release can be downloaded at:
http://mapserver.org/download.html
or
http://download.osgeo.org/mapserver/mapserver-6.0.0-rc2.tar.gz
The binary distributions listed in the download page should be updated
with binaries for the new beta release in the next day or so.
Once again we need your help to ensure a high quality product, so please
help out by testing your applications with this new code base.
Thanks! - The MapServer Team
