Hi Andrea, I have no problems with where the document appeared. But, I would
tend to agree with Doug and Rob that simple names that have meaning within a
context where the context is specified by a versioned namespace is a better
approach. Trying for an astronomy-wide vocabulary which some central party
approves is unlikely to succeed in the long-term.
But I already know that the voevent group will reject any idea with the word 'namespace' in it so I don't hold out much hope! :)
Cheers,
Tony.
