I'm not positive it's 100% correct but.... it might help you.  I gave it a
few months ago at a GIS conference.

I made a presentation on a Project we are working on that uses MapServer,
Oracle Spatial (SDO) and Linux. Anyway, I described in a picture (attached)
how the layers of technology (all I could think of, including MapServer)
interact in a HTTP request. Maybe you could use the idea, improve it, etc.

By the way, the "mapserver-users" might be interested in the end result of
your presentation. Will you be publishing it in the web?

Regards,

Rod.

Hello!

I was offered the chance to do a presentation on any topic about
technologies that can be developed under Linux in an Linux
Encounter that will be held my university.

I chose Mapserver/Mapscript.

I was wondering if any of you has presented this wonderful
technology before in front of a heterogeneous audience, so you
can give me suggestions or advice about what topics present and
what would you think is nice to show.

I've thought about the following:

- A brief introduction on Internet Mapping.
- A discussion on how it works and what can be plugged into it
(SDE, PostGIS, etc.)
- A lot of examples from the gallery and my own development.

This obviously needs more work, but should give you an idea.

Any and all suggestions are very, very welcome! :-)

Thanks,
