Re: [BP] Reordering the best practices

Linda.

I'll update the wiki.

Regarding the Access section and possible conflation with Discovery /
Metadata - I'd prefer not to:

1/ what we're proposing is quite different to how OGC has traditionally
done web services - I wouldn't want that to get lost
2/ we make a lot of reference to DWBP from here, so although _we_ have only
one BP, there's a brace of best practices (new collective noun!) that are
mentioned.
