Why do I need a Google Maps API?
I wanted to expand my knowledge on the google maps API and get a hang of pulling in WMS layers.

What is the area of use for EPSG 3857?
Remarks: Uses spherical development of ellipsoidal coordinates. Relative to WGS 84 / World Mercator (CRS code 3395) errors of 0.7 percent in scale and differences in northing of up to 43km in the map (equivalent to 21km on the ground) may arise. Area of use: World between 85.06°S and 85.06°N.

What should SRS be for Google Maps projection?
As Google Maps projection is a web mercator, I thought it would be better to request wms layers with srs=3857 (or equivalent) instead of the 4326. I searched a bit for fellow implementation and I saw that most (if not all) use 4326 instead.
