MapServer and OGC WMT specs

Hi,

We have a client that wants to setup a network of satellite servers
based on MapServer and compliant with the OGC-WMT specs.  I know that a
little while ago, Doug Nebert made available a first version of an
OGC-WMT wrapper for MapServer written in MapScript.  I haven't given
this wrapper a try yet, but I would be interested in hearing the status
of that project and any other effort that might be happening on that
front... I would rather spend my time improving (and promoting) an
existing solution than start another one from scratch.

Also, since Doug's wrapper uses Perl, and our client wants to use some
WinNT servers, I would be interested in hearing from groups that have
succesfully used the Perl version of MapScript on Win NT.  I am already
familiar with compiling, installing and using MapServer on NT, but I
haven't used Perl on NT myself, so I am looking for hints on the best
Perl solution with Apache on WinNT, and also any MapScript compilation
and setup issues, if any... etc.

Thanks,

  Don't put for tomorrow what you can do today, because if 
      you enjoy it today you can do it again tomorrow.
