Hi John,

the GetMetadata requests are extensions of the ncWMS to the WMS specification 
and the version parameter is not mandatory for them. In particular, the minmax 
request defaults to 1.1.1 version and this is why it always requires the SRS 
param, regardless the version.
Anyway, this is not really hard to fix and, since the version parameter is not 
mandatory, we could use version 1.1.1 as default and then if the version param 
is 1.3.0, require CRS instead of SRS.
Also, keep in mind if you use WMS version 1.3.0 and CRS=EPSG:4326 the order of 
the coordinates is lat-lon.

Cheers!
Marcos Hermida.
