Version 1.0 of the VOEvent specification has been uploaded to the twiki:
http://www.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/IvoaVOEvent
along with revised copies of the three examples (simple, typical,
indirection packet), a v1.0 schema that will validate the examples,
and a document model diagram that may help clarify future
discussions. In a neat demonstration of reality informing previous
virtual discussion, the server hosting the STC schema is down
currently - but both Oxygen and the W3C XML Schema Validator (http://
www.w3.org/2001/03/webdata/xsv) repeatedly validated (or failed to,
as appropriate) various test packets earlier today. A 24/7/365 sky
monitoring program obviously cannot afford dependencies on the health
of external servers. We might want to open the post-v1.0 era seeking
comments on how best to serve the schemata.
