[Benchmarking] 2012 Exercise

[Martin Desruisseaux]

Hello Jeff

Sorry for the silence. Actually I'm interested to participate (I will be 
at the FOSS4G). However time will be short for us, so I don't really 
know yet to which extend we can participate. What I would like to do - 
if possible - is to start participation, but without commitment yet... 
(while I realize that we will have to commit soon or later).

For example, because Johann is not available this year (he is busy on an 
other project), we may not be able to convert MapServer files to SLD 
this year. So maybe we would do benchmarking only on rasters for 
instance - I don't know yet.

     Martin
