Hi,

Dave Morris reminded me that here:

http://www.ivoa.net/cgi-bin/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/VOSpaceHome#Standard_URIs

there is text that assigns different StandardIDs for registration -  
i.e. it uses the names of internal capabilities.
In that form, the standardID includes the version of the interface.

I prefer the simpler form of the standardID, without the version  
number, unless there is a pressing
need to have different capabilities for different versions. The  
interface elements distinguish the versions.
