Hi,

While playing with GPKG and Spatialite which offer a nice way for delivering 
data in ready-to-use format I have been wondering if it could be possible to 
store also mapfiles or GGIS project files and styles into the same database. 
Spatialite has a special tool for importing XML documents so I believe that it 
could be used for storing QGIS files as well as SLD styles. But is there any 
simple way for importing/exporting Mapserver mapfiles to/from SQLite? Export is 
probably needed and therefore there may not be any real advantage over zipping 
the db and mapfile into same package. But I cannot imagine how it could be made 
to work so simply that Mapserver admin would only drop the GPKG into some place 
and users could start using it from 
"http://server.org/cgi-bin/mapserv?map="select map from maps where map_id=1"
