[MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver equivalent for .NET

[Guillaume Sueur]

Indeed Daniel, I've found interesting ressources here :
http://www.mapdotnet.com/wiki/Wiki%20Pages/Working%20with%20MapFiles.aspx

they write here 
(http://www.mapdotnet.com/wiki/Wiki%20Pages/MapFile%20Complete%20Reference.aspx) 
some funny stuff:
"The MapFile format used in MDNS adheres to the MapServer map file 
specification."

I didn't know that our good ol' mapfile was such a universal reference !
But, althought funny, this sentence tries to make people believe 
MapDotNet only use the mapfile format, and not mapserver itself, which 
can be considered unfaithfull if it effectively uses the mapserver 
engine behind.
