<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Françoise (thanks to her) filled the DCP roadmap 2018A during the
last Interop meeting in Victoria. During the DCP session it was
acted that the liaison with RDA had to be continued and that a
focus on DOIs was a priority for the next Interop meetings.<br>
</p>
<p>Roadmap:<br>
</p>
<p>The Data Curation & Preservation IG will continue to be the
place where liaison between the IVOA and the Research Data
Alliance RDA is established, with regular discussion of RDA
activities, their relevance to the IVOA, and the IVOA activities
relevant to the RDA (e.g. Provenance). This is a standing item for
the IG session at each IVOA Interoperability meeting. The IG also
hosts discussions on other topics of interest for Data Curation
& Preservation. DOIs have been one of the important topics
addressed in the past. It is proposed to have it as a topic again
for the next DataCP meeting in November 2018, to discuss
requirements, implementation, lessons learnt, granularity, etc. </p>

<p>Feel free to comment.<br>

<p>André and Tim, now in charge of the IVOA DCP Interest Group<br>
