Jeff McKenna and I are working on another iteration of the MapServer  
documentation effort, and I thought I would give you a preview of  
where things are so we can solicit your feedback.  We would be most  
interested in your ideas about content organization.

http://mapserver.maptools.org

Additionally, a 600 page PDF (~2.8 mb) is available that contains the  
same contents as the website in a nice printable form http://mapserver.maptools.org/MapServer.pdf

- How can we improve the organization and documentation to help a new  
user coming into MapServer?
- Does this attempt actually improve the organizational situation?
- What documents does MapServer currently lack?  Please site specific  
examples, not just the generic "MapServer needs more docs!"  Is  
something just hard to find, or is it not written?
