Aihe: Re: [MapProxy] Looking for Vector Data Proxy Server

Hi,

Another route is to extend MP for Vector Tiling. This question/suggestion came up earlier on this list:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapproxy/2016-January/002291.html
A clean solution would be helped by sponsored development.

Best,

Just van den Broecke
