[MAPSERVER-USERS] 5.2 b2 - WMS GetMap bug

Hi!

I have done some testing on the WMS server support, and there is a bug
regarding GetMap requests. MapServer throes a error message if the request
lacks the service=wms parameter. This is not right because regarding to the
WMS specification, service isn't a mandatory parameter to the GetMap
request. I know that this issue has been discussed before, and I thought the
bug was fixed a while ago.

Regards,
Pål kristensen
