[Chameleon] save polygons

MUM3 is the Mapserver User Meeting, 3rd edition:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/mum/mtg2005.html

But I haven't seen any proceedings yet. There were advanced workshops in  
Chameleon being taught there.

2 weeks can be possible, but you have to be a fast learner then.

Best regards,
Bart
