Project Announcements

We are pleased to announce that the MapGuide Open Source project team has made MapGuide Open Source 2.2 beta available.

As part of its ongoing commitment to the open source community, Autodesk has subcontracted OTX Systems to place MapGuide Open Source on the OSGeo LiveDVD 4.0 in preparation for FOSS4G 2010. Including MapGuide on LiveDVD 4.0 will make MapGuide more accessible to individuals interested in Web GIS technologies.

A security fix is available for MapGuide Open Source 2.1. This fix closes some cross-site scripting holes and should be applied as soon as possible.

Update instructions can be found on the security fix for MapGuide Open Source 2.1 page.
