Minor vs Major looks like you have already decided this.  The working
draft that you sent no longer mandates VOTable 1.0 or 1.1.  That
change alone will break existing clients.  So if we are actually
serious about semantic versioning, this should be SCS 2.0, not 1.1.

Pretty please?  We allow access to our tables via a number of
protocols (SIA2, SSA, SCS, TAP).  I really, really, really do not want
to maintain different UCD's for each protocol.
