[mapserver-users] OGC and Mapserver

[Rob Atkinson]

Social Change Online has set up MapServ 3.5 under Linux and found it pretty
stable and OGC compliance has been good.

It is a significant improvement in its ability to perform reprojections on the
fly controlled by OGC parameters.

The feature_info issue is the current major limitation - we really need to be
able to generate our own GML response schemas to get much value out of this.
