[mapserver-users] KML output 6.4.2

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Yves!

Not sure if this helps, but...I remember testing KMZ output through WMS 
(in 2011), and I had found an issue with the output coordinates and had 
filed a ticket: https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/issues/3928  Note 
that I just now dug up that old sample mapfile and data and added the 
working link at the bottom of that old ticket.
