AMDS-RODS service development

I added a draft set of data structures for AMDS requests to the wiki. This led to further defining the initial set of operations for an AMDS compliant web service.

These operations include:
QueryAMDSMetadata
QueryFullAMDS
QuerySpatialAMDS
QueryTimeAMDS
QueryTimeSpatialAMDS

Based on these two pages, I created a sourceforge tracker item that Felicia is working on.

We're working on the RODS version first for a few reasons, primarily Peter and Felicia have familiarity with the RODS database structure and we don't have data structures for any other biosurveillance databases. We'd like to start working on ESSENCE and BioSense data structures to create AMDS-ESSENCE and AMDS-BioSense soon. John is working with partners to plan out how which services we build next.
