[mapserver-users] Time to make a new demo?

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

I agree with you... Almost all of our demos are pretty dated. Personally I always liked the way OpenLayers approached things with concise demos that showed off a particular bit of functionality. I wonder if our regression tests (msautotest) might serve this purpose and if web wrapper could be put in place to present those tests so users could see that a particular configuration leads to a particular output result. 

Could always create a few more tutorial-like products (e.g. using MapServer w/Leaflet or w/OpenLayers) but again, they should be concise.

Hi,

Mapserver documentation for the new users http://mapserver.org/introduction.html is having a title Get demo running. It contains a link to a zipped workshop material http://maps.dnr.state.mn.us/mapserver_demos/workshop-5.4.zip

I am not sure if that workshop is a good starting point for the new users any more now when we are at Mapserver version 6.4 and soon 7.0. The workshop just does not work with recent Mapserver versions which makes potential new users sad.
