[Mapserver-users] Mapfile in WMS

[Daniel Morissette]

Good idea, I've added it to the docs in CVS for versions 4.0 and 4.1 and 
that should show up on the UMN website in the next update.

BTW, I've removed the hardcoded "&WMTVER=1.0.0&" in the URL since this 
value has to come from the client and we shouldn't hardcode it.
