Dear Francois,

I followed the last link in your email and found out that

1. DEFINITIONS is still there, I thought it was decided to abandon it, am I mistaken?
2. The returned VOTABLE shows UCDs v1.0, since UCDs 1+ are not available at the moment. What puzzles me is that there is no reference (namespace) to tell which UCD version is used by that particular votable instance. Will it be possible to have a votable 1.1 to use ucd1+? if so, how will the parsing software know which ucd version is in use?
3. is that version v1.1 or v1.094 (as from the pdf link)

All these comments come from just looking at the example, not at the doc itself, my apologies.

Thanks a lot for your precious work!
