Format of tokens

[Frederic V. Hessman]

The original IAU thesaurus in SKOS format in a semi-final form along  
with the latest IVOAT and experimental math thesauri are available at  
the cleaned up site

		http://www.astro.physik.uni-goettingen.de/~hessman/rdf/

Others are forthcoming.   As each thesaurus is nominally OK'd by the  
semantics group (e.g. IAU93), they need to be moved to the IVOA.

Have we agreed on the  
TokenSyntaxMostLikelyToBeLeastDispleasingToTheLargestNumberOfSemanticsWo 
rkingGroupMembers?  If so, I believe the IAU93 thesaurus can be  
declared practically done.   Check off item, move to next....

Indeed there's no reason why we can't have several thesauri up and  
running when we present the SKOS proposal to the IVOA and IAU.  I  
believe that Rob is practically finished with the VOEvent  
thesaurus.....   If IVOAT is preliminarily finished, then hopefully  
people will simply nod at the fact that IAU93 is formally expressed  
for compability and political purposes but not bother to use it  
(heaven forbid).
