copyright text bottomright but mapsize variable

[Steve Lime]

I have it working on my home machine but have not committed the code yet. There
are several ways to approach this fix so I'm going the RFC route before committing 
anything. Hopefully that will only take a day or so and then I'll save the solution to
CVS.

Hi Bram,

indeed upperleft is the one that will work even with a changing map 
size, but most people don't want copyright in the upperleft corner of 
the image .... at least some of the customers I have encountered.

I believe Steve has added some additional support for relative 
positioning in Mapserver CVS head that will make it possible to put the 
copyright in the lowerright corner.

Best regards,
Bart
