Paul,

I agree. We (AstroGrid) used to use the accessUrl element to point to the WSDL
and this caused confusion due to assymetric with HTTP-get services. At the
exec meeting in Pune, it was suggested that accessUrl should formally be
defined to be the service endpoint, not the source of WSDL, and that we ought
to have a different element to given the URL for the WSDL. I think we did the
former change but never reissued VODataService with the extra element for the
WSDL.

Cheers,
Guy
