Jason,
During the last meeting in Cambridge, an action point came out to 
re-organize the svn and all the examples directory under schema.

This was the agreement: 
http://wiki.perfsonar.net/jra1-wiki/index.php/ISS-Session-10-Jan-07#SVN_structure

Basically, there will be a clear differentiation between schema and 
protocol. Schema as in NMWG v2 schema is general (across many 
services/metrics/functions) while protocol is specific to a particular 
implementation. A protocol can be seen as a subset of a schema as well 
as an 'incarnation of the schema'. All examples will be located under 
the protocol directory. Here is an example: 
http://anonsvn.internet2.edu/svn/perfsonar/trunk/perfsonar/doc/ma/sqlTypeMA/
