VO or VObs

[Guy Rixon]

I started using VObs instead of VO because much of what I write goes
eventually to grid audiences. They think VO means Virtual Organization. I got
bored with having to explain the terms.

Inside IVOA, I don't care whether we use VO or VObs.

Vobs makes better wiki-words than VO, mind.

Cheers,
Guy
