[mapserver-dev] OGC API Review Requested

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Tom,

I've updated the status wording in the draft to:

- **wishlist:** besides the "/ogcapi" API signature (for features, 
maps..support), also allow "/features" (to allow developers to only 
request vector collections), for example:
   ```
    http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe/demo-ogcapi/features
   ```
   (Note that is how the GeoServer implementation works, when I was 
testing other implementations, and as a user this made sense)
