Hi Sandro,

I study better the question and perhas this is more a strange issue.
Infact my doub is why is necessary a getCapability request when open a project ?

The getcapabilities is need for list the layers, choose the style,
choose the srs and retrieve the bounding-box of the layer.
All this action are need only when a new wms layer is to add at the
qgis project.
So these are all do when I open the WMS add layer windows.

But when I open a project where the wms layer are just added why do a
getcapabilites request for every wms layer in it ?

This is the question.

A.
