Has anyone noticed that Theo is talking about parameters before the '?' and
Eliot is talking about them after the '?'.

I don't think you get to stick parameters in front of the '?'.

This is OK. It is not the intention to have official SRU parameters to
preceed "?". It is
just that it should be possible to have parameters being part of the
base-url without the
client being aware of that parameters and in such a case the base-url may
end with
"&"  rather than "?". An SRU request is in my opion baseurl + request. The
base-url is
a given thing and the request is build by the client. The operation is part
of the SRU
request and therefore a client has to be aware that parameter.
