[maplab-users] query returns no results

[Sacha Fournier]

Hi Matt,

In fact, maplab don't support MS3.7 but only for a few functionalities. 
For instance, all symbol are now stored in a new object called "STYLE" 
that is not (yet) supported by maplab. If you take a look at the symbol 
selector (for example) with MS3.7, it won't work. Also, in Mapedit, you 
won't be able to edit a mapfile in 3.7 format. There's some thing about 
the color object...

In brief, it might work basicly. But there'll be a lots of things that 
won't.

You can use 3.7 if you don't need the features that will be broke by 
using the version of ms.
