This all looks right to me. Thanks for coordinating, Markus. And thanks risking your sanity Mark with the cross checks.

Oh, you're right again, and this time I don't even have a Friday as a 
lame excuse for my not even bothering to check. 

So, here's what should be done: 

(1) overwrite 

http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOSITables/VOSITables-v1.0.xsd 

with what's actually in Appendix A.3 of 
http://ivoa.net/documents/VOSI/20110531/REC-VOSI-1.0-20110531.html 

(2) put the content of 

https://volute.g-vo.org/svn/trunk/projects/grid/VOSI/VOSITables-v1.1.xsd 

to 

http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOSITables/VOSITables-v1.1.xsd 

(3) Make whatever magic makes 

http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOSITables/v1.0 

(yes, 1.0 here) resolve to 
http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOSITables/VOSITables-v1.0.xsd 
right now resolve to 
http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOSITables/VOSITables-v1.1.xsd 
in the future. 


Since this procedure is going to happen a bit more often in the 
future (updates to RegistryInterfaces, VOResource and more later 
coming up; we should also make sure that the SimpleDALRegExt schema 
files -- for which this should already have happened -- are correctly 
updated), I'd say the procedure would be a good addition to the web 
assets note ( http://ivoa.net/documents/notes/webassets/index.html ). 

Sorry for the two confused first attempts, and thanks to Mark for 
paying attention, 

Markus
