<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In registering our new TAP service I’ve come across a clash in standards with the validation of the TAP_SCHEMA.columns table.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The TAP 1.0 standard defines the columns table in section 2.6.3. It includes a size column, however the report by the HEASARC validator lists this as a breach of the ADQL standard.<o:p></o:p></p>
