Yes the database can have both or more interfaces. I was also thinking
that we could use the kind field for different versions of IDL.
Following naming scheme was on my mind:

databases/EMBL.version/BioCorba.version    &
databases/EMBL.version/EMBLCorbaServer.version

It is good to have possibility to put version numbers on proper places
and not to mix those into the id-part. ..I think the scheme contains the
minimum amount of information we need.

Any other comments?
