SSAP sample files

[Tamas Budavari]

Hi Ivo -- Wow!!!

That's more than good news!  So you have not only implemented the SED
specifications independently from our spectrum services at Hopkins but
also integrated the access from http://voservices.net/spectrum into your
code on a different platform. Sounds like the proof of the pudding ;-)
(maybe should have sent it straight to interop)

Cheers, T.
