<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Dear DAL followers,<br>
<br>
I wrote this erratum proposal ten days ago, following an old issue <br>
raised first by Alberto Micol.<br>
At the same time there was a merged PR in VOTable <br>
(<a href="https://github.com/ivoa-std/VOTable/pull/30">https://github.com/ivoa-std/VOTable/pull/30</a>)<br>
<br>
which apparently discards the need for the SODA erratum.<br>
<br>
See the discussion between Markus and me in VOTable issue 32v <br>
(<a href="https://github.com/ivoa-std/VOTable/issues/32">https://github.com/ivoa-std/VOTable/issues/32</a>)<br>
<br>
So Markus suggests that for BAND interval MIN is the 1D array <br>
minimal value of both the lower and higher bound of the interval<br>
and that MAX is the maximum value of the same two bounds.<br>
<br>
In such a way that :<br>
1 ) a 2D array MIN and MAX value attribute is not <br>
required<br>
2 ) we forget the idea to have MIN as the minimal <br>
interval and MAX the maximum interval<br>
However interval is an xtype so we could have specific rules in <br>
this case as stated by the new VOTable text. So ....<br>
Thoughts ?<br>
<br>
IN any case if we follow Markus, we still have to fix the wrong <br>
tag </VALUE> and clarify the example meaning following the new text in <br>
VOTable<br>
So there will still be an erratum 3 on the same example<br>
Cheers<br>
