A new MS4W version is available (1.3.0) at 
http://www.maptools.org/ms4w/index.phtml?page=downloads.html.

Notable changes are:

         - upgraded libcurl to 7.15.0 in cgi/mapscript (bug 1177)
         - upgraded GDAL/OGR to 1.3.1
         - upgraded PHP to 4.4.0 (bug 1179)
         - upgraded apache to 2.0.55
         - added recent gdal reference files
         - cleaned proj directory
         - created rSt/html version of install document

You may want to read the PHP 4.4.0 official release notes 
(http://www.php.net/release_4_4_0.php).  A side effect of this security 
fix is that a specific type of PHP notice is now thrown according to new 
referencing rules.  For example, our testing on Windows found that 
Chameleon 2.2 templates display 'Notice: Only variables should be 
assigned by reference...' and these new notices could not be turned off 
(frustrating).  In this case a new point release of Chameleon will 
likely be required.

Please let the list know if there are any problems with this MS4W 
release.  thanks.
