Hiya,

Thanks for the links.
Can we setup a discussion page on the wiki for these ? I'd like to request a [displayName] element which contains a short name that would give UI developers something to display in a menu item.

How closely do we want to link the VOSpace specification to these. We could just say "the property URI should point to a property description, as defined by the VOStandard schema" and leave it at that. Or, we could put explicit examples in the VOSpace specification as to how these would be used.
Adding examples would make things much clearer in the VOSpace specification, but it might delay things if the VOStandard schema isn't stable yet.
