Definitive version of the VOTable schema for web services

Not sure if this is any use (given my paltry knowledge of java, wsdl and votable), but VOTable *looks* similar to Java WebRowSet (noticed this some time ago)
 (http://download.java.net/jdk7/docs/api/javax/sql/rowset/WebRowSet.html)
so there may be something out there for this you could adapt.

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
