Call for contributions to the Registry sessions at the June 2025 Interop Meeting in College Park

[Renaud Savalle]

Dear Registry users and developers, Working Group members, dear IVOA,

This is a call for contributions to the Registry session at the upcoming 
IVOA Northern Spring 2025 Interoperability Meeting [1] [2] which will 
take place at University of Maryland (College Park, MD, USA), June 2-6 
2025 (the meeting will be held in a hybrid format).

During that meeting, we will host one**regular*Registry Session* 
(scheduled for Tuesday June 3, 2025 11:00-12:30 Eastern Daylight Time, 
UTC-4).

*We are now soliciting input such as short presentations that you wish 
to make and/or topics you wish to raise for discussion. *We welcome 
publisher, developer, and end-user experiences with the Registry as well 
as presentations on recently updated or upcoming standards (see our 
current roadmap [3]).

We will also have a *Registry Spring Cleaning Hackathon* (scheduled for 
Thursday June 5, 2025 14:00-15:30 EDT): The Registry Working Group has 
begun to keep a project board on GitHub [4] where we can track and 
discuss issues with the metadata in the Registry that will make services 
and/or data harder to find. Please come to our very first hackathon at 
the Interop if you are interested in getting hands-on with how to fix 
issues in your own services' metadata or if you are interested in 
contributing to the (currently very simple) scripts that do the checks.

If you would like to present a topic, or if you want to raise a subject 
for discussion, please contact us.

Regards,

Renaud Savalle <renaud.savalle at obspm.fr> and Tess Jaffe 
<tess.jaffe at nasa.gov>, chair and vice-chair of the IVOA Registry Working 
Group
