Maggie,

I skimmed RFC 6:

   http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc6

I'm a bit vague on apsects of the FDO command architecture so my thoughts
are not very deep.   One thing I noted as that the RFC did not seem to
discuss the return results of the commands at all.  Do you think it could
be helpful to add that to the RFC?

I haven't used the WMS provider before.  I notice that some of your
proposed commands have a SetFeatureClassName() method while others do
not.  Does the feature class name correspond with a layer name in the WMS
service?

This isn't related to the RFC, but is there more detailed documentation on
the WMS provider (for the user) than what is provided at:

   http://fdo.osgeo.org/fdowms/index.html

I don't see anything objectionable in RFC 6 and am supportive of it.  I'm
just trying to understand better some of the details.

Best regards,
--
