[Mapserver-users] SVG versus Flash

Hi list,

if you want to use vector-based clients, Mapserver basically has 2 options:

1. use Flash swf output
2. use GML output on the WFS interface and transform this into SVG (xslt)

Can anybody name some strong or weak points of both techniques, and are 
there any working implementations out there?

I know there is a very good comparison at:
http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/comparison_flash_svg/

but I am just wondering if anybody has some experience with this choice or 
even with both techniques and Mapserver.

Thanks in advance for any input on this.

Best regards,
Bart
