Dear Registry community,
A month ago I have uploaded a proposed recommendation for
VODataService 1.3 to the document repository:
https://ivoa.net/documents/VODataService/20260601/
In this new version 1.3, the most relevant news are:
* column statistics (with a goal to allow plausible guesses of
distributions); sect. 3.5
* declaring which product types (e.g., time series vs. images) are in
a resource; sect. 3.1.1
* declaring the source of the data (experiment vs. "theory"); also
sect. 3.1.1.
We would like to start RFC within the next few weeks. If you have
feedback to give on this until then (see also my Interop talk
<https://wiki.ivoa.net/internal/IVOA/InterOpJune2026Registry/vods13.pdf>
and the questions at the end), I'd be very grateful. It's always
nice if documents can stay roughly constant during RFCs...
Thanks,
Markus
