See my other mail about best effort testing and what is one allowed
to do there, or isn't (more like me wondering what's acceptable).

Different shape indexes is true, but different styling and different
overviews?
The servers must end up producing the same maps (minus labelling and
antialising differences) so the styling has to be the same (for
baseline and best effort).
The TIFF files are also the same for everbody, so I don't see
the different pyramids either. Who is using anything other than
the provided TIFF files for the baseline testing?

Cheers
Andrea
