Hello Jaume,
mapfile-creation for wms-Services is already great. In our case, we use a 
web-based form to combine the view-information of the odb-file with some 
background-theme mapfile-snippets (for example, water bodies, streets, street 
names - information, which does not change that often). 
Geodata (e.g. shapefiles) of the ArcView-project is then transferred to a 
mapserver, which provides the maps you can see on the named website (see 
below).

Greetings,
Wolfgang
