Re: [FreeGeoCZ] reference geoserver, mapserver

Hi Petr,

Thanks for this feedback.  Great to hear of your use of MapServer for 
cartographic printing!  Very cool.

True, people do like to click (gui).

Thanks again for sharing this, it's a great discussion that should 
happen more often, I think it's good for both projects to hear.
