| GetFeature requests, which use typeNames in the Query element, that are correct according to the specification (i.e. containing underscores or making use of aliases), currently do not validate, if the implementation (i.e. GeoServer in strict cite-conformance mode) uses schema validation to verify the request. |

| The GetResult operation allows a client to repeatedly obtain sensor data from the same set of sensors. But there is no corresponding InsertResult operation that allows a client to repeatedly upload sensor data.
Add the InsertResult operation to the transaction operations profile or the enhanced operations profile. A client has to upload the observation template only in the first time, and then it can upload sensor data without format description, so as to reduce network bandwidth usage and increase uploading efficiency. |

| This is a change request to dissolve the SPS and WPS specifications to treat them as workflows under the Business Process Management definition. SOAP bindings have been defined for workflows (see the Workflow Management Coalition work of Wf-XML) which also address WS-Notification and WS-Addressing. A RESTful approach has been proposed as part of OWS-5: WfXML-R. The final product of this change request ought to be the official release within the OGC and WfMC communities in June 2009 of WFXML and WfXML-R with any enhancements if needed. |
