WFS 1.1 - ReadMe.txt
=======================

OpenGIS(r) Web Feature Service Interface Standard (WFS)
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The OpenGIS Web Feature Service Interface Standard (WFS) defines an
interface for specifying requests for retrieving geographic features
across the Web using platform-independent calls. The WFS standard
defines interfaces and operations for data access and manipulation
on a set of geographic features.

The root (all-components) XML Schema Document, which includes
directly and indirectly all the XML Schema Documents, defined by
WFS 1.1 is wfs.xsd .

The WFS 1.1 standard is defined in several OGC documents.

CHANGES
-------

The cardinality of the InsertResults element is 1 which means that
the element must always be present in a transaction response ...
even if that transaction contains no insert actions.  The
cardinality should be zero.  Every instance that validates against
the buggy schema document will also validate against the fixed
schema document.

 * for exact changes see unified wfs/1.1.0/v1_1_0-v1_1_1.diff
