Validating capabilities document

[Guy Rixon]

Hi Mark,

VAMDC has one here that works for us:

http://vamdc.eu/downloads/xml/VOSI-capabilities-1.0.xsd

I think that was transcribed from the VOSI standard-document. Note that VAMDC doesn't list TAP tables in capabilities, so we don't test that part.

Cheers,
Guy
