[Tilecache] ECW or TIFF to Tiles

[Jeffrey Johnson]

It would seem to me that if you are not combining vector data and
raster data into a single tiled layer, then using mapserver as opposed
to mapnik would be the way to go? If mapserver was used, there is no
reason to merge your files or reproject, just let mapserver handle
those things for you.

http://mapserver.org/input/raster.html

What is the projection of the source data, and what projection do you
want the tiles in?
