I did some research about creating my own WMS and came across the [Natural Earth Project][1]. The web page says:

> Natural Earth is a public domain map dataset available at 1:10m,
> 1:50m, and 1:110 million scales. Featuring tightly integrated vector
> and raster data, with Natural Earth you can make a variety of visually
> pleasing, well-crafted maps with cartography or GIS software.

How can I harvest the data for my WMS So that it can be used with Mapinfo or other software?
