Hi list,

as some of you may know, currently Europe is very active with INSPIRE, an SDI 
based on OGC standards, but with a few differences here and there compared to 
the standard OGC specification.

For example, a View Service (=WMS) has an extra parameter LANGUAGE for all 
requests to deal with internationalization. Also, there is an extra section in 
the GetCapabilities response for the language support.

What would be the best way to deal with this in OpenLayers:

1) keep INSPIRE outside of OpenLayers
2) add the extra INSPIRE items to the default WMS building blocks of OpenLayers 
provided they don't break anything
3) create INSPIRE classes which extend the default building blocks and include 
them in OpenLayers

I would be interested to hear opinions on this.

An example GetCapabilities document is:

Best regards,
Bart
