Do you know if they're (IVOA) designing something that has both a
personal database and a public database? Because what I was
envisioning is a personal database; an extension of the
parameter_files.(csv/db) file to cover more than one machine. It could
be as simple as writing something to use something to use this in
tandem or as an alterative to the SQLite file:

Something to think about...
