Dear all,

aside all the discussions about new forums I want to raise another
point: MapServer release schedule and code stabilisation.=20

With the release of version 3.5 a monthly schedule was announced to=20
provide packages with ongoing bugfixes. As of today the 3.5 tarball=20
is still from 18th December 2001. The nighly builds and the CVS content=20
differ significantly from this version. Many files have been undergone
substantial changes and seem to implement new features. So they again=20
provide a development branch.=20

I know that coding new features is always more fun than merging bug
fixes into stable releases. Therefore I am asking for a commit list for
the CVS: Distributing "commit messages" from the CVS system would give=20
interested users the ability to follow the ongoing development of
mapserver and the chance to track bugfixes to insert them into running
systems.

I would be glad to read others opinions.

Kind regards,

        Frank Koormann
