[mapserver-users] About a sentence in MapServer (fantastic) documentation

[Havard Tveite]

Hi Andrea,

I have updated the documentation (also for templatepattern).
Thank you so much for helping us improve the documentation!
If you are a github user, it is also possible to use github
for reporting issues with the documentation
(github.com/mapserver/docs).
