A serverSoftware child for interface?
Use cases:
- Clients sometimes like to know which software they are talking to
- Server software authors would like to know which versions of their software are still around.
Possible solution:
Add an (optional) serverSoftware child to vr:interface. Its contents
would be a string, preferably of the form (name) (version).
Alternative:
Just use the server: field in the HTTP responses.
