[mapserver-users] mapserver wms: srs problem

[Matthew Pettis]

Hi All,

Thanks to everyone that contributed.  The mapfile that renders (thanks
to Tom [Burlington] Kralidis for it) is below.  I am still working on
it not being the projection that makes the state of MN look short and
squat.  If anyone wants a screenshot, contact me and i'll send it to
you directly rather than to the listserv.

Thanks everybody for your help,
matt
