I was hoping to stay away from this conversation, but, yes, there is some of that in at least the GeoMOOSE project. It was actually less blurry in the earlier version of GeoMOOSE than with the newer version in my mind. There was more dependence on MapServer.</div>

We’ve had this conversation in the past, I think it went something like this, so we can put the OGC badge on the GeoMoose website for thier certification process being applied? . . . :c) I’m half serious with that question, and I think we could make a case
for doing just that, but it’s still not 100%. I understand the situation with MapServer as a service to GeoMoose, but what about the CACADE stuff when GeoMoose pulls from MapServer or other OGC services and acts as the translator to OGC services, where does
that fit into this? The client side of OGC communications is certainly a part of GeoMoose in some form.</div>

It’s true though that MapServer is the main OGC tool being used by GeoMoose currently, and it depends on it to a large degree. But MapServer isn’t the only OGC service that GeoMoose can use.</div>

<div class="">I meant that sometime an application uses the Standards, but doesn’t really support them (per OGC specifications). GeoMoose for example can read and write out WMS and WFS via MapServer. And in it’s latest incarnation even read WFS directly.
Some of these capabilities adhere to the OGC spec’s for “supports”, but some don’t.</div>

GeoMoose as an installation, serves up WMS/WFS via MapServer. It can also act as (at least) a WFS client and read from WFS directly.</div>

I guess that’s where I’m going with this, GeoMoose has not gone through the process of certifing it’s OGC standards. They have a very specific process to do this too, and based on that I’m saying that GeoMoose for one, would not be 100% compliant, as an example.
Some pieces could be though.</div>

Just a remainder that OGC is not the only source of standards.<br class="">
For example, GeoJSON is IETF RFC 7946 for example (and before<br class="">
last year, was a community standard). GeoTIFF can also be<br class="">
considered as a defacto standard, etc.. You have also the ISO<br class="">
standards for metadata, etc...<br class="">
<br class="">
Probably a loose definition for standards could be a<br class="">
specification available somewhere (potentially behind a paywall<br class="">
like ISO...), and implemented by at least several software/vendors.<br class="">
