[OpenLayers-Dev] protocol.WFS and HTTP GET

[bartvde at osgis.nl]

Hey Tim,

it just came to my mind since I wanted to port all of my application's WFS
requests to use Protocol.WFS. I use quite a bit of GET requests where POST
is not needed.

But you're right, why not use POST all the time.

Best regards,
Bart
