Dear DMers,

Thanks Markus .
I agree we should conform better to the IVOA Identifiers 2.0 standard .
I changed it in the updated PR version.

Taking into account RFC comment from Mark Taylor, only one datamodel tag 
should appear:

either

ivo://ivoa.net/std/ObsCore#table-1.0
or
ivo://ivoa.net/std/ObsCore#table-1.1

so that the changes between ObsCore version 1.0 and 1.1 are correctly 
identified.

Thanks, Mireille.
