Subject: Registry WG report

Hi Andy,

There's been little activity in the Registry workgroup since Pune. We'd
already decided to base the Jan demos on v0.10 of the Registry schema and
Interface specs. This is complete in AstroGrid and CDS with CDS having
introduced more detailed information into their registry. NVO is bringing
its registries up to v0.10 in time for its AAS meeting (may already be
done).

I'm hoping that, as well as being able to exchange registry information,
we'll be able to demonstrate application interoperability by Jan'05.
AstroGrid is developing a WFS SIAP service that could be accessed from one
of the NVO SIAP portals and I'm hoping to get an AstroGrid CEA service set
up to make one or more NVO SIAP services available from the AstroGrid
workflow. We can progress this more next month.

Cheers,
Tony.
