<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">1 year ago Thomas Bonfort worked on a PR to make WMS Layer groups (defined with wms_layer_groups Layer Metadata items) to be requestable.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">That's mean that if a Layer has wms_layer_group=/group1/group2 then group1 can be requested i GetMap request. This is the same behaviour as GROUP excep that GROUP can have only one group level. This change means
that GROUP could be seen as deprecated.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I worked on a PR for documentation [2] and I think MIGRATION_GUIDE doesn't need to be adapted. I worked on a new branch from a newer master branch and cherry-pick the 3 commits from Thomas Bonfort branch.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">My question is what developpers and PSC think about this? We (Camptocamp) would like to see this merged in the MapServer code base and are ready to help if changes are needed. If you agree we can close the Thomas
PR and open a new one from my new branch.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Thanks for your feedback.<o:p></o:p></p>
