Hi all, The MS RFC 133: Mapfile Syntax Cleanup [1] proposes the removal of a number of deprecated Mapfile keywords. Once in place these keywords will no longer be valid and will throw errors in the Mapfile parser. Some of these keywords no longer have an effect, and the others have a better alternative.
We are interested in finding out how much usage there is of the Mapfile XML support [2], introduced via RFC 51 in MapServer 6.0 [3], and whether the Mapfile XSD [4] and Mapfile XSL [5] files need continued maintenance. There is also a Mapfile DTD [5] which is likely to be removed, and has not been keep up to date over the years.
