<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=568573512-24112010>However, Mapserver
WMS 1.3.0 from MS version 5.6.5 does not honour the official axis
order but it is assuming the Easting-Northing BBOX also with WMS
1.3.0. Any suggestions about how to solve this? In addition to the

to stay with WMS 1.1.1 or to start using UTM projection with a
real Easting-Northing axis order.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=568573512-24112010>Problem is not only
with Mapserver, GDAL based clients like QGis are creating WMS 1.3.0 request with
Easting-Northing BBOX for EPSG:2393. Good is that QGIS and Mapserver play
nicely together with WMS 1.3.0. Bad is that it is not a fair play because
they both are fooling with the rules.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=568573512-24112010>I was wondering if
this could be handled somehow in a similar way than Geoserver and deegree
are doing it. They are following the traditional Easting-Northing axis
order if CRS is given as EPSG:2393. But if CRS is given as

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN
class=568573512-24112010>urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::2393 they are using the axis
order that is defined in the EPSG database. This is a little bit fiddling
with the standard, but the urn-format is the official one and the alternative
short format gives better possibilities for success for the end user of
ready made WMS/WFS clients.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
