Hi,

Geoserver WFS 1.0.0 adds srsName into geometries just as the examples in GML 2 
and WFS 1.0.0 show like in
http://demo.geo-solutions.it/geoserver/wfs?service=wfs&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typename=topp:states&maxfeatures=1

<gml:Box srsName="http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326";>


However, there is no information about the coordinate system at 
http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326 any more but the data are now 
available from http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326

I wonder if srsName should be changed to point to a living link. But perhaps 
the existing applications have been made to parse the coordinate system 
directly from the string "http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326"; and 
changing the url would make them to fail.

It seems that the coordinate system is expressed differently in almost every 
service that exists:

WFS 1.0.0
srsName="http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326";
WFS 1.1.0
srsName="urn:x-ogc:def:crs:EPSG:4326"
and WFS 2.0.0
srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326"
WCS 1.0.0
srsName="EPSG:4326"
WCS 1.1.1
crs="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4326"
WFS 2.0.0
srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326";
WMS 1.3.0
<CRS>EPSG:4326</CRS>

Is this something that users just need to know and accept?
