[csp] possible astropy - IVOA discussion/collaboration ?

[Sébastien Fabbro]

Dear all,

I am a very light contributor to astropy, but would be happy to join a
session in a meeting in Victoria. Tom Donaldson organized a splinter session
<https://github.com/spacetelescope/science-platforms-workshop/blob/master/notes/VO-Astropy-Integration-Splinter.md>
at
STScI on that topic last month.
