The VM is a full Debian 3.1 system with Mapserver and Postgres compiled and installed, and directly running if you open it with VMWare Player. The player exists for Windows and Linux.
For me it's one of the easiest solutions to set up a functional Mapserver development environment based on Linux, just run the VM and start. I do not need to run any more a second PC just to test or develop under Linux. And you can mess up everything and just drop it and use a clean backup to continue. Regarding future plans: I will once write down some ideas for future dvelopment. I once already mentioned some on this list, but there was no feedback then. armin > > Hi Armin. > I agree that CVS is tedious. It's your choice, of course.
