<p>Actually, when the MetaCRS list started, one of its goals was to create a test suite that could be used by any map projection library. We now have the Geospatial integrity of geoscience software (GIGS) tests for such purpose (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.iogp.org/Geomatics/#gigs">http://www.iogp.org/Geomatics/#gigs</a>), but a question could be whether there is interest in making those tests more readily runnable.</p>

<p>I noticed that some activity happen on Proj4J outside this group, on at least one fork created by a user on GitHub.</p>

<p>Why not referencing the only official source instead, which is <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://epsg-registry.org/">http://epsg-registry.org/</a> ? The non-conform definitions (because of difference in axis order and units of measurements) contribute to the confusion. If the intend is to be able to give a direct link to a specific EPSG code, this can also be done with the official registry with URL like below:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://epsg-registry.org/?display=entity&urn=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::27700">http://epsg-registry.org/?display=entity&urn=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::27700</a></p>
