<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Apps Group,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The MOC 1.1 document is quite stable and ready for its official RFC period. However, the RFC page does not list any validators, and that is also a prerequisite for entering RFC. I suspect that one or more of the listed implementations
can act as validators, but I do not know that for sure. The one I tried did not give any feedback for a corrupt ASCII MOC.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So if your implementation can act as a validator, please add it to the validator section of the RFC page (<a href="https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/MOC11RFC#Implementations_Validators">https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/MOC11RFC#Implementations_Validators</a>),
along with sufficient text to explain how to use it in that context.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I will open the official RFC period as soon as we have a validator.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
