Hi all,

I understand that MapServer supports the minimum required WellKnownName
(square, circle, triangle, cross, x) Marks in SLD.  The question is (since
the spec indicates that it's possible) how does one extend/add new symbols.
As mapserver seems to write the symbols in the mapfile anyway I was
wondering if there was a way that I could add my own.  We would prefer to
use vector symbology for obvious reasons.  Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
