Hello,
I just discovered that the VOTable 1.1 schema provided at http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOTable/v1.1 does not allow for old style UCD like VOX:Image_Naxis. The problem is that the value is not facet-valid with respect to pattern '[A-Za-z0-9_.;\-]*' for type 'ucdType'. In clear, the ':' is missing in xsd document.
More generally, I am surprised by the fact that most of the VOtable that can be found on various services are invalid. I think very few people are aware of this because most of the VOTable xml files don't specify the xsi:schemaLocation attribute and therefore cannot be validated automatically.
As a reminder, to allow validation, a proper VOTABLE tag should be like that:
<VOTABLE xmlns="http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOTable/v1.1" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" version="1.1" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOTable/v1.1 http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOTable/v1.1">
