A MapServer WMS is probably, just like the database itself, one of the 
backend services that should be hosted on the main server and have its 
URL published as early as possible so that others can build their demos 
against it.

Which version of MapServer are you currently running, probably 4.10? 
Would it be an option to also install a recent 5.0 beta with AGG support 
(with some help)?

Hopefully we can make that a MapServer community effort and if Paul (who 
just replied saying he'd also be interested) and/or myself setup a 
strawman mapfile others from the community can contribute enhancements 
to it to make the default map output (without SLD) look real good.


This is probably becoming off-topic for this list, is there another 
better place where we could continue that discussion with interested 
parties?
