  Description     : A web map tile caching system

 TileCache is an implementation of a WMS-C compliant server made
 available by MetaCarta. TileCache provides a Python-based WMS/TMS
 server, with pluggable caching mechanisms and rendering backends. In the
 simplest use case, TileCache requires only write access to a disk, the
 ability to run Python CGI scripts, and a WMS you want to be cached. With
 these resources, you can create your own local disk-based cache of any
 WMS server, and use the result in any WMS-C supporting client, like
 OpenLayers, or any TMS supporting client, like OpenLayers and worldKit.
