[mapserver-users] Gallery: running mapserver in docker on kubernetes

[Jeff McKenna]

Thanks for wanting to share this; the best way is to create a new wiki 
page on the MapServer wiki (https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki) 
and there you can outline all of your infrastructure tricks, then you 
can come back here and paste your link to your MapServer magic :)

Thanks again,

-jeff
