Late last week Autodesk released a hotfix for the mapexport/mapimport commands. We have had some clients report sporatic problems with importing and exporting SHP files, but usually we were unable to re-produce the problems locally. This hotfix addresses some specific issues with respect to polygons, but this alos might address other problems people have been reporting. Download the hotifx from the link above, and as always, would like to hear if this has resolved some of your problems... or not... Take Care Warren M

If you are looking for ways of improving the performance of your MapGuide applications, or just looking for tweaks and best practices, be sure to check out the MapGuide Best Practices Wiki site for some great information! I hope everybody has a Merry Christmas, and a great holiday season. Take care, Warren M

Wow, AU 2008 is wrapping up with the final sessions as I write this post. It has been a great week of learning, meeting new people, and seeing some exciting new technologies. My class yesterday was attended by 62 people, and went fantastic. There were some great questions asked, and some very positive feedback was given. Thank you to all who attended. Now for an extra day of R'n'R in Vegas, and then on the road again next week for the IMAGINiT Western Canadian Geospatial Roadshow in Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton. Take Care Warren

Well, day one sessions are complete, and it was a great 1st day. My co-presentaion in the Analyze This! class went great with some good feedback. The ADN conference yesterday was quite informative, with information provided on the direction of many of the Autodesk products. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about that due to NDA! :-) Take Care, Warren
