Call for contributions to DAL WG session at June 2026 Interop

[Paul Harrison]

Hi,

I am not sure if this is absolutely worth a talk, but it concerns you both - my group and I believe MAST have been working off a fork of the VOLLT library with the principal aim of using the most recent ADQLLib - which has been living off on a branch in the main repository - I have created https://github.com/Javastro/ADQLLib which has merged the branch and done a few minor cleanups, and most importantly deleted the UWS and TAP code to allow ADQLLib to evolve at its own pace - I would like to propose moving this to the https://github.com/ivoa organisation to allow greater collaboration and participation. There are some open questions such as

* publishing to a maven repository
* moving any existing documentation to be within the same repository.

Regards,
	Paul.

Here are few examples of well-known DAL standards: (Simple) Cone Search, SIA (image access), SSA (spectra access), TAP (Table Access Protocol) and ADQL (SQL-like language to query a database). The full list of DAL standards is available on the IVOA Documents page [ivoa.net] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.ivoa.net/documents/__;!!PDiH4ENfjr2_Jw!CuyXtJeX_qFTXMbstyNvxhqj4KVkHm0l7pUIo_PXTeo-rWdlpvVJ2N6J_FZtQBIeSg4qK4Kmk9A2ixG7wwlkDDit$>.
