WMS Support

April 18, 2006

A Python-based WMS server has been added to Mapnik!

Features:

Supports versions 1.1.1 and 1.3.0 of the OGC WMS Specification
Supports GIF/JPEG/PNG output
Supports XML/INIMAGE/BLANK error handling
CGI and FastCGI interfaces for easy integration into your current web server

For now, you need to check the code out from Subversion. See the file docs/ogcserver/readme.txt for details on installation.
