We've had presentations/discussions about VOSpace 2.0 at the last two  
Interops; the most recent was:

http://www.ivoa.net/internal/IVOA/InterOpOct2008GridAndWebServices/Baltimore-VOSpace-2.0.pdf

In Baltimore, we put together a list of stakeholders and acknowledged  
that DAL has an interest in this spec. I believe that Keith was going  
to suggest someone when we formed the spec definition group.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
