[gdal-dev] Experiences with the WMS driver

Hi Joaquim,

FYI your curl command will work if you update the URL to what is in  
the HTML file message (looks like it was moved to HTTPS instead of  
HTTP).

I understand it's not what you want in the end, just thought I'd point  
it out in case it's useful for troubleshooting.
