Additional Information

http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wms/basics.html (Please refer to the 'Differences between WMS versions' section). Please refer to the Axis Ordering section; "The WMS 1.3.0 specification mandates using the axis ordering as defined in the EPSG database. For instance, for EPSG:4326 the axis ordering is latitude/longitude, or north/east. This is contrary to the fact that most spatial data is usually in longitude/latitude, or east/north. The WMS 1.1 always uses east/north axis ordering. So when upgrading from WMS 1.1, if the CRS defines north/east axis ordering (e.g. EPSG:4326), the coordinate order in the BBOX parameter must be reversed." EPSG:3044 uses north/east axis ordering, which is why the values for this coordinate reference system (CRS) are reversed.
