[OAI-implementers] How to declare a repository

Hello,

...Houston, we've got a problem: We thought it would be sufficient to
implement *one* baseURL for many repositories we have. Thus we defined a
baeURL with the repositories name as parameter

http://dbs.hab.de/oai/?repository=WDB_OPAC

All parameters (key=value pairs) are added to that base url as
*additional* parameters, concatenated by "&" instead of "?" if they were
the only ones.

Is this really faulty or should harvesters add another way of trying to
get our content? How do others solve the "problem"? mod_rewrite the baseURL?

Best, Torsten
