Devs and Users,

Please have a look at RFC99
(http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-99.html). I am particularly
interested in use-cases that would not be supported if GD were to be
removed.

Thomas,

+1 I am all for moving forward with this proposal.

The only use case that I can think of for GD renders was to generate unaliased vector rendering for transparent images because the image size was significantly smaller. I'm not aware if this is still needed or who was using it for that matter.

Regardless, those people always have the option of remaining on an old version of mapserver and potentially contracting for fixes if they decide they need them.
