[Mapserver-dev] mapwms.c time support addition

[Yewondwossen Assefa]

You are too fast :)  Changes are made according to your comments. We are 
doing the QA this week as well as an how to . I will send you the how to 
when it is complete so you can review/comment.

About the multipleValue, I have removed it but It is weird that the DTD 
does not have it. It is mentionned in wms1.1.1 specs section Annexe C3 : 
<Extent name="dimension_name" default="default_value"
multipleValues="0|1" nearestValue="0|1">
extent_value</Extent>


Later,
