[Cartoweb-users] CartoWeb 3.1.0 is released!

[Alexandre Saunier]

Hello CartoWeb fans! ;)

Even if it is no more a scoop for some of you, we, at Camptocamp, would 
like to let you know that CartoWeb version 3.1.0  is released and freely 
available for download at http://cartoweb.org/downloads.html !

Changes are listed below and at http://cartoweb.org/changelog.html

Among great improvements and new functionalities, you will find for 
instance a couple of Windows Installers. CartoWeb installation on 
Windows is now really easy: launch WAMP installer (Apache+PHP5), launch 
CartoWeb installer (MapServer+CartoWeb), reboot Apache. That's it! What 
about the demo data? Launch the demo data installer as well! ;)

Several demos are available online at http://cartoweb.org/demo.html and 
show quite comprehensively what CartoWeb can do.

Last, CartoWeb companion site (http://cartoweb.org/) has been redesigned 
and now offers improved browsing and additional content: demos, 
contribs, tools, various documentations, questions-and-answers, 
migration tips, etc.

Thanks for using CartoWeb!
