As flagged in bird-house/birdhouse-deploy#466 (comment), the sample WMS notebook https://github.com/Ouranosinc/pavics-sdi/blob/master/docs/source/notebooks/WMS_example.ipynb often fails. The server either responds (or fails to respond?) with a valid XML, which causes the OWSLib WMS tool to fail parsing the contents. This causes https://github.com/Ouranosinc/PAVICS-e2e-workflow-tests to often fail the https://github.com/bird-house/birdhouse-deploy CI, leading to a maintenance overhead when working on other features.

After looking up the referenced server, I landed on the following alert:

At some point in late 2024/early 2025 we will be decommissioning the NEO Web Mapping Service (WMS). [...]

It seems to be a matter of time until the sporadic failures become a constant failure.
An updated WMS example should be provided to employ a more reliable server.
The current WMS example could be left for documentation purpose, but might need to be disabled...

I'm happy to pull it from our docs. It's nice, but semi-useful from a data analysis perspective.
