[Qgis-developer] QGIS Mapserver GetMap VERSION parameter

[Pedro Venâncio]

Hello Andreas,

For me, as a user, this is even good! However, as the standard states that the VERSION parameter is required, I thought this could be a server glitch.

Like you, at first sight, this does not seem a problem to me, quite the opposite, but there may be some inconvenience, since it does not conform to the standard.

Best regards,
Pedro

HI Pedro,

Are you sure this is really a problem? Any special reasons why QGIS server should refuse to deliver GetMap when the version parameter is omitted? Are there any interoperability problems with it?

To me it seems that QGIS server is just more tolerant here - and I personally do not care. But there may be reasons that I am unaware of.
