[MS4W-Users] When can we expect the release of ms4w 5.0

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Sven,

Thanks for your ongoing testing and feedback, it's appreciated.  Great 
to hear that you have adapted well to the SWIG implementation of PHP 
MapScript.

For Linux, you would have to compile the SWIG library from their 
'master' branch.  I also now have much experience with that, if you ever 
need professional support let me know.

Thanks,

-jeff
