VOSpace is the IVOA interface to distributed storage. This
version extends the existing VOSpace 1.0 (SOAP-based)
specification to support containers, links between individual
VOSpace instances, third party APIs, and a find
mechanism. Note, however, that VOSpace-1.0 compatible clients
will not work with this new version of the interface.
