Btw, after implementing most part of it I can say that the way the various
manipulations
one can do on a raster are specified in a much clearer, no nonsense way
compared to the
old specifications, and the fact that by default one gets the raster in its
native format
(MIME can be used, but it has to be requested) makes the spec a lot saner
to implement
on the server side.
The comments above remain though, implementing a client that can connect to
any
server is quite the nightmare, you basically have to implement all network
bindings
and at least 3 raster encodings to hope to be able to talk to a random WCS
2.0 server.
Cheers
Andrea
