IAU thesaurus initiative?

[Rob Seaman]

Th proceedings of LISA V have just hit our library:

	http://www.aspbooks.org/a/volumes/table_of_contents/?book_id=86

On p.62, we have "The Situation with ... Astronomy Thesaurus" by  
Dorokhova and Dorokhov.  The last paragraph of the abstract:

"We consider that establishing a special active Committee under  
Commission 5 for the updating process of the Astronomy Thesaurus and  
UDC52 and introducing into operation the up-to-date versions would be  
opportune and effective steps for IVO progress."

The acknowledgements also make it clear that the authors have the  
Shobbrook's ear.

Perhaps we should close the loop?
