The IVOA in 2008 : Technical Assessment and Roadmap

[Christophe Arviset]

Dear all

Following extensive inputs from all Working Groups and Interest Groups 
chairs and vice-chairs, the "The IVOA in 2008 : Technical Assessment and 
Roadmap" is now available at :

    http://www.ivoa.net/internal/IVOA/IvoaTCG/IVOARoadMap-2008-v1.0.pdf


This year, this document has a slightly new format, ie:
- section 1 indicates the main IVOA technical achievements in the last year
- section 2 details the roadmap for each WG and IG for the upcoming year 
with a schedule for its recommendations
- section 3 details the list of topics that will require special 
attention accross WG/IG for the upcoming year
- annex A lists all existing IVOA standards


I want to express here my deep thanks to all the people who have 
participated to this document !

-- 
Thanks in advance

Cheers

Christophe Arviset
TCG chair, on behalf of the whole IVOA Technical Coordination Group
