The user has to add the &GODINA Paramater to the url, it will overwrite
the default. That's why it is called default ;)

If you want to tell the user what to, you could use a default which is
not in your data (e.g. 1000) and create an annotation (label) within
this class where you decribe that he needs the &GODINA parameter for
proper work of the wms.

the OGC-Way would be to include the paramater in the Capabilities XML
(s.
http://cite.opengeospatial.org/OGCTestData/wms/1.1.1/spec/wms1.1.1.html#basic_elements.params.vsps).
But I don't know how to do that.
