OSGeo-Live already documents "implementing" of OGC standards, and I
don't think we should remove that. I think there is value to users
to know when a project claims to read layers from a WMS, even if it
hasn't passed CITE tests.<br>
<br>
And we should be reference the standard, not specific projects.
Apart from other reasons, trying to track the web of
projects/versions which have been tested to work with each other
becomes a logistics challange I wouldn't want to tackle.<br>
