    Hi QGIS Server devs,<br>
    <br>
    We, David and I, are working on enhancing the way QGIS Server is
    building the WMS GetCapabilities document. [1]<br>
    <br>
    And I have some questions about the QGIS Server WMS Advertised
    extent and the layers / groups bounding box in GetCapabilities.<br>
    <br>
    For exemple in the tests/testdata/qgis_server/test_project.qgs [2],
    the WMS Advertised extent is set to <br>
    * CRS="EPSG:4326" minx="44.901236" miny="8.203154"  maxx="44.901599"
    maxy="8.204165" [3][4]<br>
    <br>
    And in this project, the WGS84 extent of the landsat layer is<br>
    * CRS="EPSG:4326" minx="30.151856" miny="17.924273" maxx="30.257289"
    maxy="18.045658" [5]<br>
    <br>
    As you can read, the layer landsat is out of the WMS Advertised
    extent.<br>
    <br>
    So the WMS GetCapabilities document contains a layer landsat with a
    bounding box outside the root layer / group bounding box.<br>
    <br>
    I was thinking that the root layer / group bounding box should
    include all the layers bounding box.<br>
    <br>
    So I wonder what the role of the WMS Advertised extent is.<br>
    * Is it only the root layer / group extent ?<br>
    * Is it a restricted extent (no data available outside this extent)
    ?<br>
    * Is it the minimum extent of all WMS layers ?<br>
