[maplab-users] query returns no results

You're correct. I'm sure maplab will NOT work with MS3.7 (though I can't
test it). My point was that it's interesting the GMap application
created by Maplab DOES work using MS3.7 if not better because queries
appear to work now with MS3.7 but didn't using MS3.6.
