  There was  some effort put toward wfs 1.1 compliancy tests with 
several elements identified and corrected. Summary of this effort is 
described here [1].
  There is still substantial work to be done to be able to pass the 
majority of the tests (things such addressing  mandatory/non mandatory 
attributes, support of Xpath expressions, support of the Sort operator, 
encoding comes into mind).  I believe there will still be some issues 
with some of the tests that we found were inconsistent (although I have 
not followed the details, note that CITE has done some work to 
upgrade/correct the tests). There will be some effort toward this again 
sometime before the 6.0 release.
