SOS disconnect

Hi, Tom and Assefa:

Yes, that's intentional.  It's not the most readable thing, I agree, but
that's the way this particular booger needs to be done.

Oh.  Interesting.  One record is correct.  This particular table only holds
the latest obs for a given sensor / platform combo.  I was originally trying
to pass &time=yyyymmddThhmiZ and that caused it to be unhappy.  But Example2
from http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/sos_server passes a time param,
so maybe I'm doing something wrong, or should I stick w/ the syntax you
described above?

Assefa, MapServer version 4.10.2.

Tom, you're right, the GetCaps works fine, but that's because I took out a
layer that seemed to set the GetCaps over the edge.  I'll put together a
barebones .map and pass around that will hopefully be able to reproduce the
problem.

Many thanks, fellas!
