[MS4W-Users] Google Maps

[Smith, Michael ERDC-CRREL-NH]

Note that your data does not have to be in spherical mercator, you just
have to project your data in to spherical mercator. MapServer can do this
quite easily. For data in epsg:4326 the overhead of reprojection is
extremely low (see foss4g wms benchmarking info from 2010).
