I think this is a good addition since my client-side colleagues would prefer 
JSON responses vice XML as JSON is “easier to parse in JavaScript”

If in the future someone implements other formats capabilities documents 
generators like JSON this parameter should be used for that.
Right now I only planned to add support for the text\xml format :)

For json-p?

Subject: [Geoserver-devel] Add a WMS vendor FORMAT parameter to force the 
return of WMS 1.1.1 capabilities in text/xml

Hi,

The WMS 1.1.1 GetCapabilities XML response uses the OGC specific mime type  
application/vnd.ogc.wms_xml. I would like to propose a new WMS vendor parameter 
named FORMAT that can be used to force the response mime type to something more 
well recognized like text/xml. Note that WMS 1.3.0 GetCapabilities result 
already uses text/xml.

This will imply implementing the handling of the FORMAT parameter when 
generating the GetCapabilities response for WMS 1.1.1 and adding text/xml as a 
supported mime type for WMS 1.1.1 GetCapabilities result. In the case were an 
invalid mime type is requested we will log an warning and fall-back on the OGC 
default one.

Thoughts on this ?

Regards,

Nuno Oliveira
