 INSPIRE requires multi-language support and requests a list of all supported languages as well as the default language in the capabilities document. Based on the language parameter in the GetCapabilites request, certain specific metadata values, namely
   - "wms_title"
   - "wms_abstract"
+  - "wms_rootlayer_title"
   - "wms_rootlayer_abstract"
+  - "wms_group_title"
+  - "wms_group_abstract"
 as well as language dependent reference data like
   - DATA "shapes/rivers.shp"
 need to be provided in the requested language. If the language is not supported (or no language parameter is present), the default language has to be used.

 Notes:
 
-  a) several fields require certain values, these values are not validated by MapServer itself, instead a manual validation against the `INSPIRE schemas`_ or the `WMS INSPIRE tester`_ is recommended
-  b) only one keyword through "wms_inspire_keyword" is supported, a possibly provided "wms_keywordlist" will be ignored 
-  c) as suggested in this document_ regarding scenario 2, <inspire_common:ResourceType> is always set to service and <inspire_common:SpatialDataServiceType> is always set to view, both values can't be altered through the mapfile
-  d) for the root layer, the style name is set through "wms_inspire_style_name" (inspire_common:DEFAULT), the style title through "wms_inspire_style_title"
-  e) as discussed here_, the usage of group/classgroup in the mapfile is necessary to set the layer style name to the according value (inspire_common:DEFAULT).
-  f) as suggested in Ticket 3850_, the layer style titles can be overwritten through wms_style_<stylename>_title, the layer style legendURLs through wms_style_<stylename>_legendurl_* (width, height, format and href need to be provided)

+5. Style section for root layer and possibly existing group layers
+------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+For regular layers, the `concept of GROUP and CLASSGROUP`_ can be used to to set the layer style name to the according value. Additionally - as suggested in Ticket 3850_ - the layer style titles can be overwritten through wms_style_<stylename>_title and the layer style legendURLs through wms_style_<stylename>_legendurl_* (width, height, format and href need to be provided).
