Definitive version of the VOTable schema for web services

Hi,

The VOTable schema that exists on the IVOA web site cannot just be  
imported into a WSDL document. There are several web services, e.g.  
Open SkyQuery, SkyNode, WESIX, which have produced their own version  
of the schema to work with WSDL - essentially all the complexTypes  
need to be named and globally defined instead of being anonymous under  
the elements. I was wondering whether the VOTable group could produce  
a sanctioned version of the VOTable 1.1 schema that will work with WSDL?

	Cheers,

	Matthew
