wms howto

[Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)]

There is no status in WMS, only in a Web Map Context (WMC) document 
status is defined. The status is up to the WMS client and not to the WMS 
server.

wms_extent is mentioned in the docs:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/wms_server/

Best regards,
Bart
