    3636 * LCC : The OGC WKT 'Lambert_Conformal_Conic_2SP' maps clearly to LCC in CF-1 with 2 std parallels. The CF-1 spec claims that a 1SP version can be used, but it doesn't include a 'scale_factor' as does the OGC WKT 'Lambert_Conformal_Conic_1SP'. Is mapping std_parallel_1 maps to latitude_of_origin and setting scale_factor=1 correct? (see bug #3324)
    3737 * CEA : The CF-1 conventions claim this can be encoded with a 'scale_factor_at_projection_origin' alternative to standard parallel - how would this conversion be done back from OGC WKT?
    38  * PS : This projection's parameters in CF-1 are quite unusual, and significantly different from http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/proj_list/polar_stereographic.html. In particular finding a CF-1 equivalent for 'latitude of natural origin' is proving difficult.
     38 * PS : This projection's parameters in CF-1 are significantly different from http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/proj_list/polar_stereographic.html. In particular the CF-1 equivalent for 'latitude of natural origin' seems to be 'standard_parallel'. Note: we have verified the current approach we take to mapping is the same used by at least one other NetCDF CF-1 user in the UCAR NARCCAP project.
    3939 * Rot pole : Not able yet to test: as seems GDAL needs support of advanced proj4 strings that can handle rotated coord systems (see bug #4285).
