[tdwg-tag] Missing TAPIR standard

[Paul J. Morris]

Steve is correct, the Download links for Tapir point to the LSID
applicability  statement, not the Tapir specification on both:

http://www.tdwg.org/standards/
and
http://www.tdwg.org/standards/449/

Having waited nearly a year for the Annotations Interest Group's
charter to get posted on the TDWG Activities page (and it still hasn't
shown up), it is abundantly clear that the current TDWG infrastructure
has serious maintenance issues, of which this is just another example.
