 Configuration Instructions
 --------------------------
 
-1. Ensure /public/tmp, /public/javascript/cache, and /public/stylesheets/cache/ are readable & writable

-3. Download map data from Natural Earth Data, [http://www.naturalearthdata.com/](http://www.naturalearthdata.com/)
-4. Extract Natural Earth shapefiles to /mapserver/maps/
-5. Use MapServer's included shptree utility to make *.qix index files (e.g. $ shptree 10m_admin_0_countries.shp) for better performance rendering shapefiles
-6. Make contents of /mapserver/fonts readable & executable
-7. Rename /config/conf.sample.php to /config/conf.php and phinx.yml.sample to phinx.yml. These set configuration and db constants, respectively.
