   Hi Gus,

   I guess this is mainly an issue with the registry search interfaces. 
I've tried
to query directly the different registries via the OAI-PMH protocol for this
resource (ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/311).

   Namely, these are :
1) for registry.astrogrid.org
http://balder.roe.ac.uk:8080/astrogrid-registry/OAIHandlerv1_0?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=ivo_vor&identifier=ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/311
2) for alt.registry.astrogrid.org
http://msslxv.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/astrogrid-registry/OAIHandlerv1_0?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=ivo_vor&identifier=ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/311
3) for vao.stsci.org
http://vao.stsci.edu/directory/oai.aspx?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=ivo_vor&identifier=ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/311
4) for registry.euro-vo.org
http://registry.euro-vo.org/oai.jsp?verb=GetRecord&metadataPrefix=ivo_vor&identifier=ivo://CDS.VizieR/II/311

1, 3 and 4 answer properly with consistent metadata.
2 does not answer

   So the resource description has been properly harvested by
at least 3 out of 4 of the registries that TopCat is listing, and is
readily available via OAI-PMH protocol.
   Of course, if the search, i.e. the resource discovery, is broken,
this is bad...

Sébastien
