IVOA Support Interfaces 1.1

[Kristin Riebe]

Hi grid,

I vote for version 1, since MySQL doesn't have a schema and we are using 
MySQL databases. So I would need to come up with something arbitrary 
(default?) for the schema that does not have any useful meaning for us. 
If this introduces inconsistencies with that XML model, then I vote for 
fixing that model as soon as possible.

Cheers,

Kristin
