Title: Change the “service” parameter value for the GetCapabilities operation
Source: Frederic Houbie and Fabian Skivee
Work item code: Date: 2009-09-28
Category: B
Use one of the following categories:
F (Critical correction)
A (corresponds to a correction in an earlier release)
B (Addition of feature),
C (Functional modification of feature)
D (Editorial modification)
Detailed explanations of the above categories can be found in the TC Policies and Procedures.
Reason for change: The value of the “service” parameter is not clearly defined. By default, the value is “CSW” inherited from the OGC 07-006r1. But the GetCapabilities is overridden with some specific CSW-ebRIM information so the “service” parameter value must be equal to “CSW-ebRIM”.
Summary of change: On a CSW ebRIM service, the “service” parameter value for the GetCapabilities operation must have the value “CSW-ebRIM”
Consequences if not approved:
The specification remains unclear on the “service” parameter value. This lack of clarity reduces the interoperability of the specification.
Clauses affected: 8.2
Other specs Other core specifications Affected: Abstract specifications

Other comments: To be discussed if all operations in an application profile should get a specific value for the service parameter.
