To clarify, what I meant in my closing plenary comment was that
I think what we agreed was to eliminate the use of parameters for
query restriction (hence no POS,SIZE,BAND, no range-list constraints,
etc.) but not the use of the basic HTTP GET parameter mechanism
where we might have other general non-query constraint params such
as REQUEST, VERSION, FORMAT, QUERY=<adql-string>, or whatever, which
do not duplicate functionality found in the ADQL but which are needed
to compose a GET/POST operation. - Doug
