[MAPSERVER-USERS] agg and line widths

[DNC]

Thomas,

I'm drawing administrative boundaries like counties. The data came from a
polygon shapefile and converted to PostGIS. The boundaries are topologically
correct in that shared boundaries are completely coincident and not
adjacent. I have never seen these polygons being drawn like you describe. It
didn't even occurred to me that MapServer would have any difficulties
drawing this kind of data... How do you publish for instance the US states?

Thanks,
Duarte
