Hello Frans,

as Jody mentioned, there is "deegree" as well [1].

deegree WMS is fully certified by OGC, and it is the reference
implementation for WMS 1.1.1 and WMS 1.3.0 [2].

Currently, deegree is in OSGeo incubation, and we are looking forward to
solve the pending issues within the next few weeks.

Kind regards,
Judit Mays
